As an American Citizen, USMC Veteran, disabled, at sixty-plus years of clinging to this spinning rock, all I want now is to live in a State that respects/honors, supports/defends our Constitution and Bill of Rights, and at a COST OF LIVING this 'Fixed Income' human being can afford.

I moved out from "down South" 4 years ago and found your videos after we moved here. Apparently, we made every mistake. Moved out about 2 miles past Clark Fork towards Montana. Bought an off grid log house with a million dollar view. We had some major repairs to do, to figure out winter on the side of a mountain. Were 45 minutes from Sandpoint, but enjoy the lake which is about 5 miles away. Out here its not crowded, but a beautiful drive away and were in Hope, Ponderay and Sandpoint. Oh, and we have 20 acres of hillside.

My wife moved me here to Sandpoint 6 years ago. Sadly she passed away 6 months after moving here. The community gathered around my 6 year old daughter at the time and we really felt God's grace. So we stayed and this has been the best place to raise her. Just wished I moved here 20 or 30 years ago, when housing was affordable. Yes we do get comedy shows here.

[@lisabaltzer4190]

I am sorry about your wife. I was raised by a single Middle Eastern father and I know it is hard to raise a child alone, especially for a man. Men don’t get the same support as a single mother does. My husband died 2 1/2 years ago. I live in Coeur d’Alene and the kindness I have seen from neighbors, Candlelight Church and everybody around me here since his death (and before too) has been amazing. I moved here from Los Angeles 20 years ago. It was one of the best decisions my late husband and I ever made. I will NEVER move out of here. God bless.

[@lisabaltzer4190]

@SAHAMH123 I don’t know anything about Idaho schools because I raised my son in Los Angeles. Personally, I am against public schools, period. I worked for the LAPD and part of my job was speaking to Spanish speaking parents for officers who only spoke English. All I dealt with was crime in the public schools. I could tell you stories about what crimes are committed in LA public schools that would curl your hair. We would tell parent to NEVER report a crime committed against their child to the school, but go straight to the police. The schools would cover up and destroy evidence and transfer the criminal. I have the feeling that almost all public schools operate that way. There were rapes, stabbings, beatings by multiple kids against one person and other such horrors in those public schools. I went to LA schools the entire time and swore that no child of mine would be sentenced to that fate. White and Asian students had no rights at all and were constantly victimized and the schools allowed it. That is not an issue here, but there probably is unequal treatment . Public “education” is a lost cause and a failed concept.

[@des9529]

​@ShelbyAnn0375 My son has Asbergers, off the charts smart, just doesn't socialize well, and was always treated "retarded" in the Elementary schools and Middle school here, then the Alternative school was the first school . To treat him like a human treat him normal, it boosted his self esteem so much and they had the best graduation for all the kids, they are amazing.

[@jimfishnteeth5217]

I've lived in Sandpoint for almost my entire life. As a young adult trying to spread my wings, which is nearly impossible up here, I can whole heartedly agree with pretty much all the points in this video. The housing up here is absolutely nuts, and as a Schweitzer employee, even employee housing there is relatively expensive. A ton of young adults are trapped living with their parents up here, because it's just too hard to get any money too move out, because like you said, there's not a lot of jobs that pay good up here and over the top expensive housing. So unless you're ok with living with eight other people, you're going to be paying an arm, leg and a virgins soul just for a cardboard box. With that, there's just not really great jobs to work that pay high money, and any good ones are already filled because they pay good, or it requires experience that young people simply don't have because they're fresh outta high school. Adding on top of that, my few years of experience with NIC, North Idaho College, the closest college too Sandpoint, was absolute dog water. I've heard that their in person classes are better but not by a lot. NIC almost lost their accreditation and for good reason, their teachers are lazy and rely on online programs to teach instead of doing their job and it's really expensive, but that's just college. I only had two good teachers, after three years of doing college with them. I can't speak for Sandpoint high as I never took any high school classes there, but it's a mixed bag from the students as I knew a few who went there. When it comes to entertainment, yes there's only outside things to do. If you ski, snowboard and enjoy hiking like I do, it's a pretty good place to live. In the summertime there's a lot of festivals that go on, like Lost in the 50's, of course 4th of July, and then the annual Sandpoint Music Festival. So there's a few things that go on but in the winter it's dead. If you don't ski there's absolutely nothing to do in the winter time. The only thing that has kept my developing SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder) at bay has been working on the mountain and being able to go ski and snowboard. But the winters last most of the year, then of course you have mud season where it's just cold and icy with no snow. Speaking of the ice, it's funny that this place is a retirement town because you gotta watch grandma closely because I don't know ONE old person that has not broken a hip living up here because there's so much thaw and freeze and down as Sandpoints level that it's a guaranteed your driveway WILL become and ice skating rink. This also might just be a me thing, but I find it hard to make friends up here, so your "dying alone" joke at the beginning hit a bit close to home. There's not a lot of creatives up here in my age group. Everyone up here only has a few interests and that is; hiking, fishing, cars, hunting and camping. And out of those I only really enjoy hiking, so I find it can be really hard to find people with similar interests to me. I find the social scene pretty dead up here for teens (as I grew up here as a teen), down town is mostly bars so you have a lot of bored teens up here chomping at the bit to get out of this town because a lot of the social life isn't built for them, ESPECIALLY in winter time. I'm not saying Sandpoint is a bad place to live, I do wanna get out of here for a little bit and then come back, or one day when I'm maybe rich, have a house here or apartment. But it's a GREAT retirement town for certain seasons. But it definitely has its flaws. The crime here is very low, but there have been a couple times I've been put in direct danger (being chased down by men or a 🔫pointed at my car at night at a stop sign.). But it's very few and far between and I know plenty of people that have never had bad experiences here. But still, ladies, carry pepper spray or other defensive measures with you. Overall I do love this place as I have grown up here, but it DEFINITELY has its flaws, and all the youth here can agree with that.

[@americafirst9144]

Young man. It sounds like you have a lot of challenges ahead. You'll find your path. Have faith.

[@andrewbrowne5557]

Other than that Mrs Lincoln, how did you enjoy the play?

[@wtfserpico]

You lack perspective.

[@jschiek8054]

Couldn’t agree with you more. I moved here two years ago and I currently teach at North Idaho College. The “accreditation crisis” was rough, enrollment extremely low. I strive to make my classes full and engaging, but the students are a good indicator of how well things are going. I get the impression many of them don’t know why they are there outside of they’ve been told that college is the next logical step after high school and, for want of other affordable or more local options, NIC is the only way to make that happen. It’s a great place if you’re retired and have money, but for younger people looking to start or grow a family, the lack of upward trajectory employment options leaves that demographic in a sort of permanent economic depression. Add to that, available recreation options for people with kids are pretty thin on the ground. Sandpoint had a great public park over off of Pine Street. My son loved going there and playing Nerf guns with the local kids, but that was torn down (completely) in the last year or so to build an indoor rec center for the overwhelming demographic of boomers that hold this area in their arthritic, iron-deficient iron grip. I wish you all the best in finding a way out of here. I’m looking for one, too.

[@jimfishnteeth5217]

@@jschiek8054 I'm so glad you brought up Travers Park. It's been a bit since I've read what I wrote, but Travers Park was really sad for my friends and I. We enjoyed going there at night and hanging out. I know it was sad for a lot of people but screw what the younger people want I guess. I hope they build up another nice playground somewhere else on the land. But I really appreciate the teacher input on NIC, that gives a lot of perspective thank you!

[@mountainmama9611]

This was a fair assessment of our little town! The only thing I'd like to say (as someone who works in our school system) is that the quality of our public education has little to do with the education itself and more to do with state funding. Idaho ranks either 49th or 50th in the nation for per student spending. Our community does an amazing job of supporting students, both through the levy as well as organizations like PAFE, Angels Over Sandpoint, Rotary, etc. You made it sound pretty dismal and while there's always room for improvement, money and access to resources is the biggest issue. Our educators are high quality!

[@knowthymedicine]

I agree. No matter where we are ranked in the country…Sandpoint education is amazing. I just graduated our youngest (of a combined family of 8) and was really surprised how much more prepared our kids were at college orientation than all the other kids and families.

Sandpoint IMO is mostly leftest loons from California and other blue states.

McCall Idaho which locals call "little California" is a small town that was taken over by Californians and few local Idaho people live there anymore. They were pushed out by the high taxes and liberal politics. Sandpoint is not far from being the next McCall.

There is bike paths ALLLL over the place here. You can basically ride anywhere. We have a really nice library, amazing beaches, some hiking trails, a farmer's market full of local goods on Wednesdays and Saturdays from i think May - September. A little county fair in August, The Festival in mid to late summer, which is a music festival lasting a week long, all sorts of artist come! When i was a kid I saw Air Supply, about 8-9 years ago I saw Sublime, this year I think Jason Mraz is coming, country artists come, folk artists, all kinds. A little kids festival on the last day. Also, if you're low income and need an apartment, there are some, just might have to be on a waiting list. Overall, i love this town. Maybe I'm biased, though, since I grew up here.

You aren’t being completely honest about the property tax structure but the rest of your video is spot on.

[@kennethewing6362]

As one who has lived in or associated with Sandpoint all of my life, you're right on with everything you said. I might add few details. 1) Jobs. Don't forget that if you work remotely, and thus don't have to rely on the local job market, Sandpoint is a great place to live. 2) Trains. Point out that Sandpoint is a confluence of three separate railroads. So, 60 trains a day doesn't mean that all of them pass through on the same set of tracks. But you do hear all of them regardless of what tracks they run on. 3) Snow. Sandpoint does a good job of plowing the streets in the winter. They have a method for systematically plowing that clears the streets within a day or so of a storm. But you do still have to drive on potentially slick streets, so please use traction devices and, if you're not used to it, practice controlling your car in an empty parking lot. 🙂

[@lisabaltzer4190]

I own a rental management company in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho. Rents definitely are going up, but there are many factors most people don’t know about. Insurance for the rental properties have gone up 100% in just this last year. Property taxes have gone up too. The cost of maintenance has more than doubled now also. Building material prices and the cost of labor for repairs and maintenance have gone insane. A roofer who quoted me a labor cost of $17k before the work started, raised that price to $35 when it came time to start the job. Then with all the other prices raising, the salaries of my employees have to be raised too. All these price hikes get factored in to the cost of the rent. When the landlord’s expenses go up, so does the rent.

Did you just said what i heard? That dating joke was savage!!!😂

[@kookietherapy9398]

Lots of communal dis-ease. Armor up

[@SnowSurfer7x3]

Premium. Yep. Ski there. Leave the rest of North Idaho to the locals

[@marcinep8323]

I believe Sandpoint has a Waldorf School option. Maybe Montessori

[@stevebrown8368]

Like my mom from Osburn used to say “ wipe your butt and everyone knows

[@Lisa_Isom]

The main issue for Idahoans is: It's expensive! And, it was expensive even before the influx of Californians. Now, it's completely out of reach... financially 💔 (I hear Montana is much more affordable) 😉😉

[@patriciaellinghausen4365]

Montana is not cheaper.

[@redcossack245]

And to make it worse, your awesome Army Navy surplus store burned down. I was so bummed to hear that when I visited up there just a few weeks ago!!! Well, at least you still have some awesome microbrewery's.

[@robertberwick3514]

That's awful! I visited that store in april, and loved it. The proprietor was an awesome guy, I hope he rebuilds!

[@Val-xi4we]

I gave you a thumbsup. But man.... stop with the video intros!! and the cutaways to movie scenes!! its overdone. Your content is fine, you don't need those distractions.

[@Hemidakota]

What is happening on the water issue?

[@patriciaellinghausen4365]

There is no water issue in North Idaho. That is southern Idaho, had to do with farming, and is almost 8 hours away. In addition, it has been resolved.

Thanks for another great video.

I'm thinking of selling my land there if anyone is into view property. 6.5 acres close to town on the very top of Gold Mountain(borders FS). Rough access and mostly steep but would be great for a off grid person or seasonal. Comes with private lake/beach access. 250k.

[@herrent]

I'ld like to hear about your place. I've been looking for something around there.

[@Intheflesh79]

[@barryc9115]

The untold shadow reality of Sandpoint. It’s the swinger capital of Idaho. Most of everyone there has been with everyone else there. 🤢

[@Brotherfromcalvary]

God bless you brother!

[@livingdead247]

Good luck finding a high paying job! If not all your money is going towards rent!

[@Shell2014]

North idaho is a terrible place…… everyone stay away!

[@darleneturner7688]

[@loloLolo-vz6wx]

Governor ensley is moving to Idaho

[@LivingLifeNorthIdaho]

Makes sense, you don’t stay in your own pool after you poop in it 😆

[@coskier1969]

Not the most beautiful but very nice.

[@LivingLifeNorthIdaho]

What would you say is the most beautiful?

[@coskier1969]

Well, there are so many. I would not say what I think 🤔 then every douche nozzle would go there.

[@wrigman]

My back and knees hurt from racing motocross in the 70’s when dirt bikes had NO suspension………

[@shickakaper8028]

Somebody got rejected

[@bigbulls6562]

Your not welcome here especially if your from California or Colorado

[@Nalo538]

How is it with diversity?

[@crystalbuck6525]

Oh, and people open carry firearms around here. That's why crime is low.

[@thebigskyguy]

Why did the city planners build a freeway separating the downtown and lakefront?

[@richsimpson3516]

To keep the semis from rolling down the main drag.

[@legrandmyers4083]

We need higher taxes

[@ShiningNoctowls]

🔥🌧🌈

[@alchemenergyacademy6231]

Politics. Sandpoint has a lot of liberals.

[@kathyleicester7306]

Sandpoint is lefty central, like you never left commie WA. Not beautiful enough to overcome that.
