Boise is turning in to california..

Why would you say that? Trump won Idaho with 63% of the vote in 2020, and McCain won it with 61% of the vote in 2008

I'll never understand why lawns are required by HOAs in the western US. In Denver my inlaws used xeriscaping and it looked great. No need to waste fresh water on a lawn. I'd rather use that water to drink and water a vegetable garden.

[@kevinmcreynolds7520]

Only in certain areas. (Which is the more popular “affordable” areas right now) Places that were farms not long ago require green scape. Honestly, I think it’s because your lawn is on irrigation water which is regulated. Places like the foothills area (in my experience) are on city water to pump it up into the hills so you have ore flexibility. However, there are more restrictions in the hills for other things like rod iron fences (see through) and limited vegetation to prevent wild fries due to a lack of moisture. Also… wildfires, drought, smoke season, and fly season are a thing here. Think northern Nevada or South Dakota

Im in Ohio and pay 750 for a 3 bedroom house rental. But im also in not the best of area . Is there a bad area of Boise??

[@kevinmcreynolds7520]

No. The worst parts make other states look like the affluent parts of most states, but you’re gonna pay 2-3 times that in the treasure valley for rent. you can find it in other parts of Idaho. Just remember how big the state is may not be as fun but it still can be cheaper outside of the treasure valley.

And here I am paying a $247 registration fee on a 2017 minivan in California. Good Lord.

[@warbaby1975]

LOL! I know right, I'm in California paying $700 on my 2016 F-150

[@scratch1200s]

Yup, I have a 2017 civic type r, and I paid close to $600 here in CA.

[@kevinmcreynolds7520]

Well, if you move here and get an electric vehicle here it will be way more than that so stick with gas in Idaho.

[@canyonproductions7683]

Arizona is worse

[@greggalindo6714]

You added a RoboCop clip! You’re hired!

[@veganfood4you789]

My auto registration is $600 per year . Time to trade in my luxury car

[@davidhuffman7181]

50-75 percent San Francisco/Oakland. Its ranked 29th in u.s. economy/gdp vs our other 52 states, and its ranked 39th in population. Great mormon churches, good national guard bases, surrounded by mountains and good hunting. Pro life state strict abortion ban modeled after Texas overturnment of roe vs wade. 100,000 economic growth only this year where Texas 3 trillion$$$. Not a safe place for Hispanic African Americans military or just passing through.

[@davidsmith2509]

You mean I can’t just visit? Passing through is dangerous?

[@melodiejupiter]

Explain please! Is not a safe place for African Americans or just to pass through?🤔 So is dangerous over there?

[@dianafelix3490]

52 states?

[@dianafelix3490]

Not safe to live there if Hispanic and/or African Americans? Is it not safe for hispanics passing through? Why not? How so?

[@djflashlinx5150]

HOA $600 a month?? ooopsie...

[@livinginidaho6750]

Ahhhhh…I meant a year! $600 a year!
