I lived in Newport Washington for a while, right on the Idaho border. Spent a lot of time in Idaho. I saw many bumper stickers, "DON'T CALIFORNICATE IDAHO.' I asked an Idaho guy about that, he said they were sick of Californians moving in. He said that an immigrant from California better get those California license plates off of his car in about 48 hours. If an Idaho boy saw California plates, he would get a broken windshield and a few flat tires.

I was thinking the same thing.

Would the people currently living in Idaho want to be advertised as the best state to live in?

Utah is passable but what is the deal with water down there. Sounds like a goat phpuck.

Isn't Boise one of the fastest growing cities in the country?

Just like the cure for high prices is high prices and the cure for low prices is low prices, the way to ruin the best place to live is to tell everybody about it. Boise was rated #1 place to live in all those magazine articles of the 90's and early 2000's and the cows have come home to roost.

Prices of real estate have skyrocketed, I think Boise had the highest rate of real estate price increase in the nation. Wages have never kept pace with the cost of living, particularly real estate, and as I understand it folks are actually starting to leave because they can't afford to buy a house or rent an apartment here.

For a while very recently houses were being snapped up at asking price or even higher in 2-4 hours of listing it. My friend's mother-in-law died and they sold her house here 2 hours after listing it. Now I'm seeing nice houses sitting with for sale signs for days or weeks, quite possibly for the same reason lots of nice firearms remain unsold. Folks want and expect top top top dollar and when they see what other people are asking for "similar sales in the area" they just keep adding more to their asking price.

But out of state developers keep developing and the city and county commissars, uh, commissioners are totally in their pockets. 8-10 story apartment buildings are being approved in what were and still are single family residential neighborhoods. South of town the housing developments are going up as fast as they can bulldoze a piece of farmland and move the dozers to the next chunk of land.


The bright side is I'll be dead before it hits Portland, Seattle or Denver status. Maybe.

As a native born son of commiefornia.. I hate seeing other states get infested with what is usually the flilth of California. I dream of one day leaving this state that has become a cesspool of hell on earth run by retards. Don’t get me wrong I love the land that is California but the guberment and people (the majority)are [bleep]. Sometimes I feel like a alien in a foreign world. Smdh

I’ve heard a few people say that.

I didn’t stop. Just looked real nice driving through the south end and over towards lava hot springs.

Rez proximity? Methy?
