I wouldn’t say this is the worst place to live, in fact I really used to love it and could’ve envisioned living here for the rest of my life. However, it’s gone through a lot of change over the years. The living costs have skyrocketed and the growing population made it lose its old sense of community. Residents are always mad and divided over something or another. So it basically all the small town drama without the old small town appeal. It’s great to visit though, summers are fair and there is a lot to do if you enjoy the outdoors. Hiking, boating, fishing, foraging, and more!
My husband and I had our house built in Coeur d’Alene 3 years ago, but had been visiting for 6 years prior. We came from living our life in the Bay Area of Northern California. Prices have significantly gone up since we’ve been here. Great for us, bad for newcomers. The things we love most about the area is living near all the many lakes, mountains & pine trees. The downtown is so nice! There’s lots of restaurants, bars & shops. Good nightlife (live bands) at a few of the bars. During the Christmas season, downtown is all lit up, especially the Coeur d’Alene Resort & Marina. Tubb’s Hill is where lots of people go for a nice walk/hike with water mountain views. It’s right in the downtown area! We are 45 mins from the Spokane, WA Airport. Fairly close to Montana, too. People here are friendly. Mostly a red state, but as people move here it’s turning a bit more blue. We get all the beautiful seasons! Clean, fresh mountain pine air to breathe. Lots of sunny days.
Local population is being driven out by older consumers. Consumption outpaces Production. Restaurants packed to the brim with patrons being impatient. If you are a homeowner you can survive, but the rents have near doubled for renters. Schools are underfunded, but have good teachers. There is a certain level of divide...Far Right QaNon vs Republicans and it shows. The Redoubt movement is very real, the very mainstream media they despise also brainwashed them to be extremely hateful. An Idaho Conservative is no longer Conservative enough and local areas are seeing growth and traffic. There is a small niche of hope making traditions and history stay alive; revitalized museum, art walks, theater, etc. Unfortunately the community isn't as connected as it once was. Don't expect to be offered services, because soon they won't exist.
