I'm your newest sub! I wish I contacted you when I was in CDA this past week. Fantastic channel. I'll definitely call you when I'm ready to buy. Like everyone else I'm in love with your town and need to get a lake view house...eventually.
Hi @Carl Cunningham, you absolutely should have! Next time maybe. Thanks for watching and subscribing. So glad you liked our little town.
@@LivingLifeNorthIdaho Will do. And if you are ever in Scottsdale/Phoenix I'll get you hooked up with the local real estate scene.
@Carl Cunningham, my folks have a house in Scottsdale we like to visit. That would be great!
@@LivingLifeNorthIdaho Question: What is your wholesaling/fix n flip market in CDA? That’s what I do here in AZ and I’m also a Realtor/auctioneer. Wholesaler with ethical standards...
@Carl Cunningham I think the market is so hot here it’s tough to find any deals good enough to flip. Wholesaling does happen but I think it’s fairly rare right now.
One other thing you may be interested in, during covid we refused to wear masks and many refused to be jabbed. We trust our God and love freedom.
this is more accurate than these shameless realtors inaccurate portrayal of Sandpoint as a Liberal Homosexual Mecca with pride flags adorning all of the street signs every 10 feet.
?? This makes us sound dumb?
And also, don’t say “we” like everyone agrees with you. For anyone wondering, sandpoint is not totally conservative, we just celebrated pride fest, there’s some good people here 😊
What's good about pridefest?@@ajlsfkdfj
As someone who literally lives in this town, its weird seeing someone show me all these local places, and literally my own school online.
Watch out for those scary Republicans who constantly call out hypocrites and believe in punishing criminals. Just not “inclusive” enough.
As a non American, this channel has made Idaho my fav state. Really keen to go. Wish I could work there. Just love this stuff. Such beauty
Cda is better than sandpoint
Last time I was in Sandpoint it was on a beautiful summer evening... Aug. 7, 1997. I was at the John Prine concert. He was fantastic. I had a super long drive to get back home so I left right after the concert. Beautiful setting.
Great video and information, and Abby is an incredible driver! LOL Thanks for this information.
Sandpoint really is perfect...we live in Calgary and try to visit yearly and enjoy the beach...the town...the people...the whole area...you just can't beat it...love
I'm a over the road truck driver and I deliver in Sandpoint every 3 weeks at the Litehouse facility. I come up Montana hwy 200 which turns into idaho 200. Some of the most beautiful scenery I've ever seen in my 15 yr career. This week I pull out and went down hwy 95 all the way down to Boise and wow just wow.
I just drove through southern Idaho up through Montana on my way back from the Sawtooths. I was stopping every hour to take photos of some of the most beautiful scenery I had ever seen. Thanks for watching and commenting.
That's my favorite route out of Missoula. Couldn't agree more with you.
THIS is the first Time I hear about SANDPOINT IDAHO, and I love the Lakes.
I'm from the UK and I love your channel. I'm visiting Idaho for a month in June, and I'm really looking forward to exploring. Have to say, losing the background music would be a definite plus, it detracts from the great content.
We love sandpoint, me and my wife are traveling nurses and we are always in big cities all across the United States. We both grew up in small towns lake side just like this and we just love sandpoint. But you do either need to travel like we do or work in health care or own your own business of some kind to really make a decent living
Stumbled upon your cahnnel thanks to Lilly and Wat 👍 now subscribed woohoo.
Love it! Thanks for subscribing.
Sandpoint is beautiful we love living here
From Georgia visit every summer Sandpoint is the best place ever love it 😍
Love this! We feel so lucky to be based in such an incredible community!
Ate at the Burger Dock last summer while there. It was really good. Didn't spend enough time there in the area.
Bought 20 acres up there last year. Retirement. Love the outdoors!
Which part? I'm way up Rapid Lightning.
thank you so much for giving a contradictory and negative view of Sandpoint. That is exactly what i wanted so that people won't come here and change the lifestyle. Congrats on a job well done!
Thank you both for this information. I don't recall you mentioning anything regarding medical care and resources. Please include this kind of information in future videos. It's important to us old folks.
Funny how soo many people are like don’t move here, don’t ruin our state. Look you don’t own it! It’s a free country, it’s America! People can live wherever they want! And if you don’t like it you are also free to move. I live in Michigan the upper peninsula is super beautiful, we have tons of lakes, winery’s, beaches, sand dunes, we have Mackinac Island a whole beautiful Island with no cars around just ride your bike or take a horse ride and eat the best fudge you will ever have. Move here, it’s gorgeous. Detroit has high crime yes but it’s also a cool city most city do have high crime if you’re in the wrong areas. I don’t discourage people if they want to live here. It’s a free fucking country.
Well said.
Nice to see familiar faces!! hope you doing good Abby !
It's very nice however I like the area around priest river it's just flat out beautiful !
Coeur d’Alene is much nicer in my opinion but I love sand point too
Great conversation of the area. I was curious....many out of state people gravitate towards Lake CDA for high end real estate. Outside of being by a larger town, are there advantages to CDA over Lake Ponderay, from the perspective of the lake life itself, for someone looking for some land to build a custom home on there? I like the idea of the larger, deeper lake and maybe better land value on Ponderay as opposed to CDA.
Great video. I love living here in Sandpoint. But don't tell to many people, lol
You almost had me convinced until you said “they’re okay with Liberals”. 😔😔😔
not true. Liberals, like these two realtors, are oddballs here. Nobody drives around like them filming themselves pretending they live in LA or Aspen.
That we are middle of the road is so wrong. We believe in our God country and guns. We wear them in the open. We are conservative. Few are liberal. So, there you have it. Lived here since 1980. Not a middle of the road people in general. More moving on monthly. BTW we don't change easily.
I hate to make 2 comments on a video but you are right.My band regularly plays the 219 and we just played the a&p and they are really cool venues.Also Joels and the taco taco trailer in Ponderay are world class food.(I'm Mexican so maybe I have a bias)
I love the 'niner. Mitch is a cool cat.
Make all the comments you want. I see no problem with that.
Stop telling people about Sandpoint!! It’s our secret!
Lol
USA Today/Rand McNally named Sandpoint "Most Beautiful Small Town in America” in 2011. I think it’s been on people’s radar for awhile
Exactly.
Its over now buddy. Californians list Sandpoint as their number 2 Idaho destination to move to behind Boise.
@@JesusChrist2000BC well thankfully there isn't a whole lot of room to develop. I see far fewer listings now than ever before. Bonner County is pretty good to deal with, but hopefully they'll keep zoning the way it is. I can't imagine increasing density in Selle Valley area.
Hi there - your links have a bunch of extra characters at the end. Please do fix. Great video! 👍
Hi Aine, which links are you referring to?
from nyc, you describe the progressives of sandpoint as being more tolerant and open minded. I have to wonder what that actually means or translates to as the people here are progressive and anything but open minded.
I’m realizing my language might need some updating. Not sure how to refer to the politics of Sandpoint these days. My understanding is that basically they’re accepting of different lifestyles. They believe in social programs that benefit the community as a whole such as mental health, food banks and solid budgets for education. And they don’t think one single religion should be the focal point of government. What do you call this stuff these days?
@@LivingLifeNorthIdaho that’s liberalism
I think 10 years ago that would be accurate but I think that’s a broad overstatement these days. When I hear liberalism I think woke culture, gender pronouns, CRT, hormone therapy for children without parental consent. You know, insanity. I don’t see Sandpoint being on that part of the spectrum.
@@LivingLifeNorthIdaho Then I think something like "Brad Little" conservatism is what you are getting at. At a national level it can be called Romney/Ryan conservatism.
Great well rounded information. I subscribed. Idaho is a beautiful state. Don’t blame you for wanting to keep it that way. The only one thing that can ruin it is more people. I like how in everyone of these videos somebody comments “Californians go home”. I wish Californians would have been more like that years ago but not sure if that would have mattered. We are too damn welcoming. As a percentage of population more Idahoans moved to California than the other way around in 2019. Also Idaho is about half the size of California but you have about 5% of the population. I think you can spare the room.
That's a lie where are your stats?
Always nice to see our beautiful Northern Idaho, but so glad the left leaning Sandpoint is far enough away from Bonners Ferry where it truly is God's Country...
Problem is Bonner's Ferry will be the next SP and CDA. Too many Californians moving in, and this guy Trent bringing them in for $$$$$$
I'm looking to move to North Idaho within 3 years. I have it down to Sandpoint and CDL. I'm conservative, I like to fish and hunt, i enjoy eating at different restaurants, I have a 5 year old and a 1 year old so i need things to do. Also, I need it to be safe and plenty of other kids for my kids to make friends. Where am I moving?
I am interested in motorcycle/atv trail riding and I've seen videos on Canfield Mountain, but are there trails and places to ride off road vehicles near Sandpoint? I like how both of you are honest in the review of Sandpoint.
Yes @Lions 67! Lots of trails all over North Idaho. Thanks for the positive feedback.
Please Do A video about the small towns in North Idaho !! Rathdrum, Hayden, Spirit lake, etc !!! 💯🇺🇸🦅🗽⚔️👍
Very nice interior, What vehicle(manufacture) did you shoot the video in? Thanks
It was Abby's Range Rover. I believe she ultimately ended up selling it because it was in service for like 60 out of the 90 days she owned it.
Kids, thank you so much for the video! What is the average monthly a rent in Sandpoint? (for a 2 br, 1 bath apartment)
Hey love your video and we are thinking of moving there, but what about medical services in Idaho?
As a resident I can tell you there are A Lot of great doctors, they like it too!
As @Bettina said, Yes! A really great hospital with more top notch hospitals just across state line about 30 minutes away.
@@LivingLifeNorthIdaho I didn't know you could drive to Spokane in 30 minutes from Sandpoint. Where are you from?
Not to mention sandpoint has the Idaho Club - the only Jack Nicklaus signature course is Idaho!
Come see my band at the Idaho Club this Thursday July 15!!!
When you do these kind of reviews, could you talk a little about health care options in the area, it’d be really helpful for us older folks. Thanks so much!
We will be sure to talk bout that on our pros and cons list. Thanks for watching and commenting!
The healthcare options in Sandpoint (and the whole area actually) completely suck. There's no one decent doctor that shows the minimum level of competency
Healthcare in Sandpoint is HORRIBLE. They have Bonner General Hospital, but even the locals up here go down to Coeur D' Alene. From my own personal experiences, my wife has MS, she had a seizure one night, the Ambulance took her to Bonner Hospital, the doctor gave my wife 3 spinal taps, you are NEVER to give some with MS a spinal tap. There's a joke up here, if someone is going for an appointment at Bonner Hospital, your friends will say something along the lines of "nice knowing ya", it's funny, but like any joke, there is some truth behind it, and it's not different here, the Hospital has horrible reviews by the locals for a reason.
@@firewilley thank you for the honesty, that’s good information to know.
I'm 5th generation Idahoan and none of my family go to Idaho doctors. True story!
I appreciate the video, but agree with others that the two of you were on screen way too much. By the way, many, including me, see the conservatism of Idaho as a feature, not a bug.
Appreciate the feedback. The part of conservatism gets misunderstood quite a bit. There’s a balance to everything including conservatism. Sometimes people get so carried away with their political beliefs they become antisocial, angry and bitter towards society. I’ve seen this first hand and it’s very destructive to friendships and families. That should have been clarified better.
Found your channel today researching where to move my Wife and 2 kids out of Crazy Town, USA (Los Angeles). If there is not a Idaho state “de-programming” class for families I can enroll in, can you ask for one from your non-socialist elected leaders. Never mind, to much money. Love the show.
Being chased by a bear in Glacier Park as a child has left me a bit bear shy. While driving near my son’s house outside of Sandpoint I noticed the sign, “ entering Grizzly country” . If you move there be sure you always carry something big enough to take one down. Bear spray isn’t going to save you. My son can’t have chickens because of the bear.
If you push idahoans out of Idaho you will lose everything that makes North Idaho.
Its already happening, so many of the locals can no longer afford to live here. The cost of housing has become ridiculous over the last couple years. Not to mention Idaho has never really had strong wages, so there is a not a lot of good paying jobs.
Welcome to being the new Washington
Time to gather the villagers with their pitch forks and torches so we can run them new people out of town. lol seriously we need to get rid of those city slicker types. The fastest way is to cancel their internet and cell coverage lol
To bad I here sandpoint is really getting screwed up because of stuff like this. Winter like 96 and 97 .50 percent of the people left 20 feet of snow at my place on high land flats Naples.
My grandpa live on round mountian road at the top of that hill
I was homeless living in my truck in Sandpoint during ice storm of 96.
@@stormstouvenel9059 yap the power was out everywhere no power in Naples for two weeks.
I’ll be there for the second time at the end of the month. Loved it
Lake Pend Oreille in water volume is the 2nd largest in the lower 48 states excluding the great lakes that are more like seas. Lake Tahoe is larger in volume but smaller in overall shoreline and length. So, some would say Lake Pend Oreille is the largest lake in the lower 48 states due to volume + shoreline + length + depth. It does get choppy, can be like a rough sea particularly during and right after storms, even have swells. Its 1200 deep, 4th deepest for navigable lakes, which makes it a cold lake. During the hottest times of year, the water can warm up to 5 feet down, after that depth is gets cold. Love Sandpoint but its growing season is shorter than the Coeur d'Alene area, Sandpoint is colder, more snow. I teach sailing on this lake, great sailing lake. There are no sailboat rentals. In the winter you must do snow sports to avoid seasonal affective disorders. Also, Sandpoint is very conservative in the town and outside the town. Good news is few far lefties here. Most people who have moved here are trying to get away from left states. Yes, Idaho does not give as much money to public schools because many kids are home schooled or go to private Christian schools. I have lived her for 25 years. Amazing place particularly for those who love the outdoors.
I have to be critical of your video. You are just riding down a road: Show us Idaho, not you. Sandpoint, the town, the surrounding areas, all the possible places to live and recreate, the people, the parks, shopping in sandpoint. Can you live there and reach a grocery store or Walmart without traveling an hour? Etc.
Even if you live up in the mountains you can get to Walmart and Home Depot easily within 30 minutes. Most of the driving time is spent coming down the mountain roads. Once you're on the valley floor you're there in no time.
Hi @Hillock10 Appreciate the feedback. There are 45 other videos on my channel. I'm hoping you watched more than just this one but if not check out the others. I tend to get pretty positive feedback for the information that is provided. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Great points..and I agree
@@LivingLifeNorthIdaho I was going to say the same thing lol you could have shown your faces for the first 30 seconds and then just narrated and it would have been a better video. Just sayin lol
They're really into themselves hahaha
Sandpoint and Idaho in general is very conservative. Liberals and leftists will not like it here nor do we want you here.
You guys should go to the pack river store they have very good food
My husband and I are currently looking for a home or a lot right on the lake! Wanna be friends? lol...im so curious what do you guys do in your free time in Idaho? Does the downtown area stay busy year round? Im a boutique owner...would love to start another store there!
Hi @Alli Schultz, only if you and your husband are cool as cucumbers 🥒 😁. There’s so much to do around here if you’re in to the outdoors. There’s farmers markets throughout the summer in Cd’A, Liberty Lake and Hayden. More trails and lakes to explore than you can shake a stick at. 5 ski Mountains within an hour of Cd’A, and tons of golf courses and disc golf courses. There’s timberline zip line tours, the Hiawatha bike trail on the state line between Idaho and Montana and so much more. Downtown does slow down quite a bit between fall and winter but once the holidays are here it picks right back up and is absolutely gorgeous! Do you have someone helping you find a place or are you still on the planning stages? Thanks for watching and commenting.
11:14 I'm pretty "far-right". Sandpoint seems the right place for me then.
Sandpoint: Liberals and overpriced!
It is. These House Jockeys wish they lived in LA and are inaccurately portraying the area to try and shamelessly sell a few houses.
Do you have recommendation for a good area to live in northeast Washington? I'm from nh . North idahoe is my first choice though
Hi Don, absolutely! It just depends on the type of lifestyle you are looking for. Give us a shout on email and we can make some suggestions for yah. Livinglifenorthidaho@gmail.com
Do not move to N Idaho unless you like self centered Californians. Just move to Cali.
@@jenniferwise8515 Kali Kommies only last two winters before they're loading up, moving out and selling their expensive toys for twenty cents on the dollar.
been looking at Samuels Id. towns that are short distance from Sandpoint Id. Seems cheaper outside of Sandpoint Id.
Whats a ball park cost to drill a well?
Are there many weddings in the Sandpoint area? My husband is a wedding DJ, currently living in Tahoe.
Yes, lots of weddings from locals as well as people doing destination weddings.
Yesssss. Everyone move to Sandpointe. Great idea. :)
Keep the Californicators out of Idaho!
This guy is bringing them in. He's pimping out Idaho obviously in realestate.
Sandpoint is all hype! Everyone should visit wallace idaho that’s beutiful and historical
Do they have Amazon prime service ? Is there a cute town like this one but good conservative ? Thanks 🙏🏻
Yes, Amazon prime services most of Sandpoint. Coeur d’Alene is going to be the closest thing to it. That and McCall Idaho.
No Amazon Prime is a deal breaker?
@@q-chan4764 I think lulunyc was trolling.
You need to stop telling people to come to Idaho. You are benefiting yourself because you are in real-estate.
Self serving sellouts. Like most realtors.
Yeah they are benefiting themselves but just about every city and every touristy attractive small town has real estate agents with yt channels telling people to move there. There are hundreds if not thousands of channels just like this from all across the country.
I’m from standpoint and it’s very nice but in winter, it’s impossible to walk around.
That's what snowshoes are for.
I’m looking for a very small place to rent because I also have something on southern US but finding a place in Idaho is my ticket to the border! Please help 🙏
Great video!You are right about the the culture here.I am kinda conservative but I have no problem with the non conservative people here.Live and let live I always say.
Love it saltymurderhornet. Thanks for watching!
That attitude is what allows the far left to take over. They don’t believe in live and let live. They believe they are right and will use force to make you do what they believe is right.
More money does not equate better education, that's the trap you fall into and end up paying more taxes for the unionized teachers that essentially take over. If you want to give kids a leg up you get them involved in technical schools that teach a trade, not most of the BS that is taught in public education these days.
I think you are correct.
Yes!! Exactly why I homeschooled my son and now I help with my grandson. Its made a huge difference. My grandson at age 8 could tell you the first 10 amendments/Bill of Rights and what they meant in his own words. He also loves to go shooting and hunting with me lol. He’s a good young man.
What's up with Samuels Idaho?
Definitely a no-go town for me. Horrible prices, and very rude and borderline aggressive people. The people there definitely over exaggerate it to drive up tourism. Would not go if I didn't have family there
For everyone that’s moving to SP for political reasons, keep in mind it’s actually pretty liberal for a city in Idaho. Bonnets Ferry and Coeur d’Alene are both much more politically conservative.
That's because of all the stinky unemployed Spokane baristas who loaf around town.
Don’t be so sure. CDA just voted in a RINO mayor that Post Falls voted out.
@Metal Mezzo what makes you think the new mayor is a RINO?
Good to know.
@@LivingLifeNorthIdaho anyone who is in favor of mask mandates is not conservative. He gets voted out of a neighboring town and he must’ve thought he can bring the same ideals to CDA and in a way he’ll probably be able to because the city council isn’t any better except for Gookin. The only reason the mandate ended was because we just simply didn’t comply. The citizens are more red then most of our officials. He said his only reason for not supporting mandates is that they’re not enforceable. A conservative would say they’re not constitutional. It’s not about what’s enforceable, it’s about protecting the rights of the people.
As someone who grew up in Eastern Washington, why WOULD you go to Spokane?!? 😂 So true, so true....
what about the wooden boat shows and Sandpoint is big in to high school football
Hey man I gotta ask, is she the little girl from water world? Legit asking

@@LivingLifeNorthIdaho You sound like a typical Kali Kommie. Get lost. Definitely wouldn't recommend you to clients.
100% these realtors ruin areas, portraying it as the Castro with gay pride flags everywhere to get Californians to move here. No Shame in the Game whatsoever. They won't make it through this coming real estate downturn anyway. They'll go back to the Bonner County Mall Vape Shop.
it is good video
Living life in North Idaho - ? Just a wild guess !? You're a realtor , a broker ? Sand point has exploded as well ... Way way too expensive ! As most of Idaho has become !! Just saying ....
I’m seeing you commenting all this negative stuff all over my channel. What’s your purpose, Brian? Got some negativity you need to spread around?
The Truth ! Is now negative ?? And good - is bad ? Up is down ?? 😂👍👌
Yep..gentrification is no joke.. The local agents will enjoy that influx of outsider money...for a time..but eventually it will be Californicated too much for even them. Hide and watch.

Perfect. Then it is a win- win!!!
We need more Frank’s in the world lol
Hi! So glad you cover Sandpoint and IDAHO is beautiful BUT It would be nice if we could even find a decent home with alittle acreage, if to find any home at all really... and worse, there's nothing worth buying because all homes, even dilapidated ones are priced way out of the market! I could not make an investment on a home selling for a huge price and have to end up renovating the entire home. Might as well buy land and build, however, land is crazy expensive too. 😳
I'm afraid you missed the boat unless you're a well off retiree. Raw land parcel size was going for 20K per acre and that was off grid. Construction materials and labor if you can find it are astronomical. 3 years ago was probably the last best chance to get up here before the Kali Kommies raised the price of real estate with their refugee migration.
I would rather just stay back in the mountains of Idaho .
You got the right idea. If I had to do it all over again I would build a two story barn home. Keep your vehicles, equipment and mechanicals down and home up.
Idahoans living in the northern part of the State, DO NOT want to be infiltrated by Californians. STOP telling people to come to Idaho!!! If you would see what the natives already have witnessed, they are cutting down our trees....more and more roads going in, larger towns and less small businesses. We don't want people from States that couldn't get in touch with the State they are coming from. Sandpoint was a beautiful town...watch it go down the tubes now!
Exactly!! This video is a false view of what’s really happening here. Its heart breaking.
The growth is unpreventable. Ask Colorado when we got swarmed by leftists and Californians.
He's a real-estate pimp! That's why we hate outsiders especially Californians moving here. They claim they don't want to change it but see $$$$ and want to develop every field and pasture!

Medium income isn't close to 50K lol lol and medium housing just bumped up to that the last few years........this has taken the locals out of the housing market!!!
Hey @D Harper that’s what our research showed. What do you think the median income is in Sandpoint?
Exactly.. It is white flight from blue regions..and gentrification is no joke. They will make it not what it once was.. But the true grit..the. REAL pioneers and true fromtieers folk will find new places to flee to.. Someday they ( the flee- ers) will start creeping in there too and pricing the locals outta town too. And opportunists in the area will gladly rake in the outside dollars..all the while quickening the demise of what made their childhoods great.
Influx of the foreign dollars.
Keep Democrats out of north Idaho
Which small town do you recommend between Sandpoint and Coeur d’Alene? I'm thinking of taking a drive up from Bay Area, CA to explore....I need to leave CA, these crazies are moving too far left.
You need to just take a drive. Not much between the 2towns except Athol. Lol
I agree. Ceck out Hayden Lake, Wolf Lodge area. Or Peice.
Stay in the Bay Area. It's awesome!

Not sure why eating out always takes center stage when reviewing a place...Is food what defines a town?.. even if they all get the same food services of America trucks pulling up to their back doors people think that cracking open a #10 can of chili in town 'A' is somehow different than the same #10 can cracked open in Town " B" and News flash.. when you say food is sourced local, it doesnt mean the meat is from down the street, it means it from the closest local town.. prob CDA via Spokane...
Hey craigslistrr, thanks for watching and commenting. I don’t think it’s about the food as much as it is about the experience you have around the food. Some of my best memories as a kid was going out to eat with my grandfather and listening to him tell his stories and try and cover his farts with a poorly timed cough. 🤣 People have always liked having those experiences so restaurants are looked at pretty closely when looking at visiting or relocating to a new place. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Exactly!!! Finally some one with some common sense in regards to food.. If you want local and fresh..go pick yourself some berries..go hunting and get your own venison..now THAT wiuld equate to an actual " experience" otherwise your pretentious food I snob i- ness is beat fit for a character in an episode of Portlandia.
Didn’t Detective Mark Furman move to Sandpoint after the OJ case?
I was all over it until you said sandpoint is "moderate". If I want that ill move to los angeles.
Don't listen to them as they are just interested in making the sell. If you are a God fearing conservative you need to move there to keep it that way. Otherwise the drag queens will read to the kids and there will be massive cheating at the ballot box.
Actually partner, I might end up there where another part of my family lives. I was hoping you wouldn't tell everyone about Sandpoint,
Maybe for education, it would be better if parents got involved. Glad to hear there are many homeschoolers there.

3 high schools, there is the regular high school the alternative High school and Forest Bird charter high school which my nephew graduated from.
Went to SP and was highly disappointed. The amount of trailer parks scattered throughout the outskirts of the area is highly unsightly. Those homes in the $650-750K range need so much work. How can a state with such a poor education system, no public sanitation, etc. demand such high prices? Furthermore, I did not see the friendliness, conservative outlook and fit people you referenced in this and other videos. Also the mask wearing is prevalent in quite a number of people. BTW, I tried to call you three times before I visited, your number does not seem to connect to any answering service. The agent I worked with was absolutely useless.
Hi @Skepticalbynature I’m sorry you weren’t able to get ahold of me. I haven’t heard anyone else complain about this issue. We also have an email address you can reach me at anytime livinglifenorthidaho@gmail.com. Sounds like Sandpoint isn’t the place for you. Feel free to reach out and we can help find a place that might be a better fit.
We love our trailer parks! What's wrong with our education system. I was a teacher in Idaho.
Please stop bringing people here. You can find a more honorable job!@@LivingLifeNorthIdaho
America's Promise Ministries...Sandpoint is hopefully where I'm headed, ..
My daughter and son-in-law just moved to Sandpoint to co-pastor with Pastor Barley and Marth. So far, they love it having come first from NC but before that New York .
Fire season is getting worse. The timber industry needs to open up at Sandpoint, it will burn to the ground if the growth of trees is not maintained. Be warned it will happen, just when. And if it does happen the real estate market will and it will take a big dump, trust me we have been through this and it sucks. Open up the logging industry now.
Can you be more specific on what’s going on? I thought the idaho timber industry was pretty free to harvest the trees. Are they not?
@@LivingLifeNorthIdaho the Forest Legacy Program. It prevents development in forested lands. It's Federal funded and it had played a part in our towns logging industry, turning it to a ghost town, as of today 30,000 people have been evacuated and Tahoe could be next. The Dixie fire complex and Caldor fire complex are examples of the legacy program. Don't let it happen to you.
@@rusty-ole-boomstick1268 good to know. Thanks for the info.
Trestle Creek Complex almost got us.
@@lavrentichudakoff2519 we lost 200K+ acre's and it's still going. 800+ homes. I know exactly how you feel, many of us do. Stsy vigilant, spot fires can whip up at any moment. God Bless
You two are awesome!
Apparently this is where that biker gang that made the news came from, I would stay away
How can education be ranked 51 when there are only 50 states? That great Idaho education!
It didn't mentioned anything about crimes, or I missed it
