Yeah, I don't think the commentators here realize how fast Idaho has grown. There are some NIMBY attitudes here, but by and large we do just greenlight almost all development.

I'm from south central Idaho and it's really astonishing to see how much growth has happened in both poky and Burley. But basically all the cities I'm familiar with are also operating with roughly the same infrastructure they had when I was a kid, and that's the problem. Idaho isn't upgrading that infrastructure. Instead they keep finding inventive ways to keep cutting taxes and ignoring infrastructure.
