Blackfoot, ID
Love this awesome town! -
5/30/2019I am new to Blackfoot and as a former west coaster I can say I survived winter, it was not that bad at all, (before this winter I had only driven in snow 4 or 5 times in my life). I love all of the amenities in this town, yes it is small which is what we wanted and Jensen Grove Park is amazing!!!!! There is a skate park, disc gold course, normal golf course, multiple play structures, concert area, man made lake, huge walking path, and beach area. They hold awesome events, our first one was Halloween and my kids loved it! Each holiday has had some celebration of sorts at the park. There is also a small airport and really good places to eat around town. Housing prices are awesome!!!! We managed to get a really good size house for under $200,000. The community is amazing and embraced us. My husband and I both have to commute to Pocatello but for us it is worth the 30 min drive (45 min to 1 hour during winter storms). I am not sure about the jobs in Blackfoot but if you want to earn more and don't mind a small commute then you can go either to Idaho Falls or Pocatello for higher paying jobs.
