Idaho Falls is my next home destination
Can anyone tell me which areas I do not want to live in?
If I should think about buying land verses already owned?
If single moms do fairly well there for child care, live in nanny?

For what it's worth, I lived there for a short while about a decade ago (we live in Washington near Seattle now). My wife is from Idaho Falls (near the airport), and I'm closing on a rental property next week in Idaho Falls. As I've considered "emergency backup plans" over the years--we would look into moving out towards Ammon. It seems easier to find the better schools in area out there.
I do recommend reaching out to Don ^^^^, he is very helpful :)
