This is a good job. Probably going to be some limitations but it's going to be a good job and Idaho's beautiful. And I'm sure everybody knows but the only person getting this job is LDS
 
I’d gladly go to Idaho to make 400k+. This sounds like it could be that type of opportunity after a year or two.
 
COL is low and people are building mansions there for a fraction of price that it costs to live on either coastline. Idaho is up and coming in my opinion.

Not in Boise or CDA but Fruitland is far enough outside of the Boise metro that it’s probably relatively cheap.

Here’s a new construction home on a few acres in one of the nicer suburbs in Boise…

Podiatry job listings are getting strange.
Podiatrists are eligible for more job categories than in years past. Some are chief of surgery now at smaller VAs for example. As a result of our degree now being eligible for higher level management jobs at the VA, DPMs get included as theoretically eligible on many job postings like this that a podiatrist actually has no chance of getting.
