Most of them are under 45 I would say. Most I talk to are coming here running from either California’s political policies(guns, taxes) or Portland because it got to weird and crime is to high. We have some of the lowest metro crime rates in the US. So that’s a big draw to.
But Boise is definitely moving blue. Which is what’s cause the rub between the people who have lived here and those moving in. Even though a lot of people see Idaho as a backwards messed up state(and trust me it is in a lot of ways). The people who have been here outside of the last 5 years when it has exploded are pretty resentful of the growth.
For all of these issues it’s still a wonderful place to live. But that might change in the next 10 years.
- r00fus 8y agoIs it moving blue or have the GOP just moved deeper (crazy) red? Maybe “blue” really means they’re more left-libertarian and don’t feel the GOP is a sane choice?
