Info on Boise-Metro Area/A One stop shop for your convenience
Hi everyone,
I've been wanting to start this thread for a long time with the hopes of offering several websites for people to view who might be considering the area. Please note that the info on these sites may or may not be updated on a regular basis and that the information may change as statistics change. My goal is to help you look in the right places so that you and/or your families can make the decision as to whether Boise-Metro is right for you.
Many of the questions you are asking can be found on these websites so browse through them at your leisure. I will try and add new ones as I come across them if I think they might be of some help to you. Happy Reading!

Want to know the wages for your line of work? Take a look at this link from the Idaho Department of Labor. It's the Occupational Employment and Wage Report. It covers the whole state of Idaho, but for Boise-Metro scroll down to page 77. I'm not sure how often they update this link or if the link changes as each year goes by, but this one is for 2007.
