We are moving somewhere in less than a year to join/start a medical practice. We are very outdoorsy(hiking, biking, running, love to hunt and fish). We also want the creature comforts of shopping and resturaunts. I have two elementary school age children so great schools are a must. My husband loves the snow but I'm wary of it b/c I've never lived in it. I'm very sporty so I think I could pick up sking but I'm afraid of the work of living in the snow as well as the dreary conditions (cabin fever?). Snow isn't a deal breaker but lack of hunting is
We really want to find a great community with friendly, nice people to create a life for the long haul. A growing community would be ideal. My big questions are can I survive the weather (what does living in CDA/Boise entail) and can I make friends with other people like me (active families with a comfortable income who really do want to be friends not just neighbors). I'm also opposed to cookie cutter houses on tiny lots and urban sprall. Any other enlightenment you can share will be appreciated. We aren't sold on ID but it's appealing b/c it doesn't seem as saturated with MDs and is conservative compared to lots of places west and PNW. We need a community of no less than 30k (preferably a little more). Thank you
