Is Idaho Falls good for remote workers?

Crime rate is something to consider -Idaho Falls sits at 277.0 per 100K. Household incomes average around $69,630 in Idaho Falls. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. The suburbs are where most families end up. Thoughts? Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. Property taxes are high but you get good services. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look.

Came here for retirement and stayed because it's exactly what I was looking for. The weather is honestly underrated and I don't see that changing anytime soon.

Not gonna lie, the first year was rough. But once you find your neighborhood and your people, there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad. Would recommend to anyone considering it..

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem hit or miss.

I've been here 6 years and it's been a really good experience overall. The thing nobody mentions is community vibe. It's manageable and it affects daily life more than you'd think.

That said, the weather is legit. And if you're into skiing, this place is surprisingly good.

Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The Riverside side vs the Springfield side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.

Good luck with whatever you decide..
