Why Relocate to North Idaho?
It’s not a dream - you can work, play and live in the same place. Coeur d’Alene, the county seat and the crown jewel of the Gem State, hugs the north shore of Lake Coeur d’Alene, a community which has successfully turned its natural resources into a showplace for outdoor recreation and ideal family living. Eight miles west is the city of Post Falls, overlooking the Spokane River with growth marching toward the Idaho-Washington state line.
The 17-mile Interstate 90 corridor between Spokane and Post Falls/Coeur d’Alene flourishes as manufacturing and research and development leaders discover the prime advantages of these locations. Business growth is prospering along the state and U.S. transportation corridors in Hayden and Rathdrum.
People who work here also live here, enjoying a Quality of Life unsurpassed. They can walk, bike or drive to work from settled historic neighborhoods, newly planned developments with affordable housing, riverside condos or elegant homes overlooking the mountains and the fifth fairway.
An evening out can be a world-class theater performance or an intimate evening listening to live jazz. Mountains are here for climbing, slopes for skiing, lakes for boating, and rivers for fishing and floating.
