That was great, thanks! I am moving to Eagle, in 2 days. 😃 And I love that it is a strong Red state. You always do a good job on your videos, thank you.
Thank you for the comment, and welcome to the Treasure Valley! Eagle is such a great city! If you ever have any questions or are looking for recommendations of any kind, please don’t hesitate to let us know!🙂
Thanks for the honest reporting. We had been planning to move to the Eagle or Star area for the last year or so and recently decided against it because it's become so un-affordable. The affordability index is among the worst in the nation with the incredible price increases over the past four years. I'm retiring and could afford the pricing, but my kids want to follow us and they're far from retired and we want them to be able to get into affordable housing. That's not Idaho anymore. So we're now looking elsewhere. Homes in Ft Worth are half of what they are in the Boise area so it just can't be ignored. Property taxes are a lot higher - sure - but with a lower valuation - it's almost not even a factor. Idaho would have been fun. We're bummed but that's the way it is.
Thank you for watching and the thoughtful comment. Sorry to hear that Idaho isn’t going to work for you and your family anymore. Our housing prices have definitely become a deterrent for many. Best of luck in the Lone Star state!
Welcome to Meridian! And best of luck! My family and I also live in Meridian and we love it (and we’ve been here for almost 20 years). Thanks for the comment!🙂
❤️🍁🍂 Beautiful presentation. Thank you for your vast research and dedication. I too will be departing So.California. I've been seriously following the lifestyle of gorgeous Idaho for ten years. Will be leaving soon. Looking forward to a new adventure with my Fur-babies. ❤️🐕💓🐶💕🌻
Thank you for the comment (and hang in there - moving can be hard we know 🙏)! If we can help in any way, please let us know by commenting here - or feel free to call me (Marcie) directly - my number is 208-598-3041 (your string of emoticons, captured me - all of my favorite things 🙌 🐕 🐶 🌻 💕).
This video does a nice job of the balance between the 'pros' and 'cons' of Idaho, even if some of us consider the 'cons' as 'pros'. Not mentioned as a 'con' though would be ACHD (Ada County Highway District), by far the poorest managed government agency in the state, causing unnecessary gridlock throughout Ada county...
Thank you for watching and the thoughtful comment! And thanks for adding the note about ACHD and the uptick in traffic we’ve seen - our roads are undeniably not where they should be for the growth we’ve seen (and continue to see).
2020-2022 was truly insane. Is that ever good to actually hear!! I recently relocated across Canada to Alberta because of all that insanity; if Alberta goes, I'll be looking “south”. ☺️
Thanks for the comment! And yes 2020 to 2022 was indeed bonkers! 😵💫 And congrats on your move and best of luck in Alberta! If (for whatever reason) it doesn’t end up working out (but hopefully it will) and Idaho ends up being an option, please let us know. We will be here and would be happy to help!🙂
Hi Andy, Commendable effort in taking the time to create this informative video. We run a community of Real Estate Agent Influencers who get together once a week to brainstorm video for Real Estate. Assuming this may be relevant, would you like me to send you an invite?
Well, no - that’s not how we roll AT ALL … We tour our clients all around the valley - and tell them everything they need to know about various areas so they can make the best decision for wherever their at… That’s 100% our jam 🙂

Enjoyed this honest evaluation . We are in process of buying a home in Meridian ( retired ).Love the community aspect and conservative attitudes

Idaho isn't a Utopia? The blasphemy Marcie! 😂
Lol! (Well, I can’t let everyone know can I?!?🤭😂).

@@Livinginboiseidaho-candid I was just kidding.
Oh thank heavens - your comment threw me for a sec there (it’s been a WEIRD week)! Appreciate you and your commentary (always)! 💙❤️
Eckspecially
Noted. That’s one word I’ve apparently never fully ironed out even after 5 years of speech therapy in elementary school…🤷♀️😂
