Idaho Falls is underrated, change my mind
Curious what people think. Military spouse here. Poverty rate is 8.1%, which is pretty low. It's a a smaller city city with about 66,672 people. Average temperature is around 47--F, so expect cold winters. Crime rate is something to consider -Idaho Falls sits at 277.0 per 100K. Household incomes average around $69,630 in Idaho Falls. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. The weather takes some getting used to. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years.
Pros:
- Growing food scene
- Diverse community
- Good healthcare facilities
- Good airport connections
Cons:
- Sprawl everywhere
- Few job opportunities in some fields
- Boring for young people
- Far from major airports
- Homelessness issues downtown
