Idaho--Looking for Best Town to Live & Work w/ Young Family

[Josh Jack]

Hi there! I'm from Colorado. My wife & I are headed to Idaho in August. We are going to make our trip part business, part vacation. What areas are great for work/life as a young family, we will potentially move there so looking for areas we can connect with realtors in advance to get a better idea. We have researched quite a bit online but wanted personal references. 

We want some direct advice on where to visit and look as a potential town to live in. We have two young children, 4 & 18 months. We love being outside. I am in commercial construction and will be exploring employment options/companies in advance as well. 

In your personal experience and opinion what are the top areas to explore and consider for living with a young family who values community, work/life balance and easy access to outdoor activities.
