Living in Soda Springs - 12/15/2008
Beautiful to live in the mountains in a small town,
but watch out!
If you aren't "one of them" it is extremely difficult to find and keep employment. The chemical mines pay their people well, but the other businesses are quite locked up with "their own people." The nearest city for any real employment opportunities is a one-hour commute in good weather over a 6000+-foot mountain pass with some very scary truck drivers!
Speaking from experience - 3.5 years there and never made a friend and couldn't land a job. Pocatello is a long commute in icy, snowy winters!
Soda Springs is also a tremendously difficult place to try to unload a house for sale![read more...] |
