I hope they remember why they left CA and vote accordingly when they go to the polls.

I wouldn’t imagine that the people in Boise are too excited about more construction.

Western WA also experienced this shift. My husband and I had a home in a more rural NW WA county. Despite having no resources for the homeless in our county, the homeless population grew exponentially and drug use appeared the main driver. Taxes just kept increasing, our small community lost one of our two conservative reps by 19 votes, not that our conservative reps mattered against the number of reps representing the larger more liberal areas. Schools were pushing garbage and homeschooling is more complicated due to rules and regulations. In July 2019 we put our home on the market. We sold our home in Very early 2020 and moved our family to Idaho. BEST Decision we could've made.

My parents lived south of us in WA and their area has seen a Massive increase of East Indians moving into the area. Honestly, I don't even recognize the area I grew up in anymore. TONS of new homes, Lots of immigrants, homeless, drug use infront of your face and totally overwhelmed police departments who have had policing powers removed by the insane defund the police campaigns.

I hate being so far from family but I am So Happy we are in Idaho. We didn't move here to change Idaho but preserve our freedoms and those of our children's.

The clean look is the first thing that struck me, too...getting off the plane and driving down Vista Ave toward the capital. Stunning! Boise just has an amazing vibe.

Hi Brady we were just with you in Idaho last week and decided to move forward with our move to Idaho! We’re happy with our decision.

If I'm going to Idaho, it surely isn't going to be boise.

California DMV: schedule appointment (weeks in advance), get there at the appointed time (say 9 a.m.), sit down, wait, hear your number called a quarter past noon.

my husband didn't want to leave either he was raised at the beach. but he loves IDAHO. We're in Northern Idaho.

Brady I spoke to you on the phone a few weeks ago and after we got off the phone I kind of realized that I had a little bit of trouble articulating some of the reasons why I want to move there. This guy has literally put words to my thoughts and feelings, honestly. I too grew up in California, I no longer live their and haven't for a long time but I see Phoenix turning into the same reasons I chose not to move back to California for. My kids Childhoods is the biggest reason for wanting to move there. Every point he talked about is 100% how I feel. I can't wait to move.

I fell in love with Alaska in 2017 because it felt like Orange County in the 70s. Moved back to the Antelope Valley, CA with beautiful weather 9 of 12 months of the year. My utility bill averages $30 per month with solar and an electric car. No traffic. Yet we are 70 minutes away from the Getty, the Huntington, LA galleries. I have family scattered through SDC, OC and LA so I can make easy plans to visit. God gives us gifts through life. Take them without having to justify why it works out.

Simplicity and kindness are what make Idaho, Idaho. Idaho is best for 1) families with young kids, 2) business owners/ remote workers, and 3) those into outdoor recreation (skiing, hunting, fishing, mountain biking, etc).

@ableduckie5394 5 months ago

Agree. As a former Californian, I left CA with my family, my businesses, my assets. Sold all my CA real estate. Couldn't be happier. Taxes are lower, people are friendlier, bought a new and large home, and wife got to buy expensive furniture without limitation.

I left the San Francisco Bay area for Emmett. I burned that bridge and sold my house there. I'm never going back. Only to visit and take care of my mom.

@soulfulEye 5 months ago (edited)

Yup. We lived on the central coast and the bay area, we do miss the food, but not the beach. I'm more of a mountain person. But... there's a great restaurant close by that reminds us of California. I'm not in Idaho, though.
