Random thought, My family moved here when I was a kid. Household incomes average around $77,534 in Hayden. Median household income is $77,534, which feels about average for the area. With a population of 16,021, Hayden is a small town. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. Anyone in a similar situation? I'd say it's better for families than young singles. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. It's not perfect, but the community is solid.

My experience has been mostly positive. I love the pace of life here. The only thing I'd watch out for is housing market. Other than that, Give it a chance - it might surprise you..

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem excellent.
I've been here 13 years and I have mixed feelings honestly. The thing nobody mentions is cost of living. It's growing and it affects daily life more than you'd think.
That said, the dating scene is legit. And if you're into skiing, this place is excellent.
Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The West side vs the Midtown side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.

Came here for a job opportunity and stayed because I'm still on the fence after all this time. The traffic is honestly surprisingly good and I don't see that changing anytime soon.
