Then Caldwell, Idaho might be the place for you. Located on the west edge of the Treasure Valley, it is a city in Canyon County, Idaho.  With a population of almost 71,000 in 2023 (and growing quickly), it is becoming a favorite Idaho town to relocate for those who want a little space, and to save a little money on a home.

The city of has worked very hard to revitalize the downtown area, and it shows. There are year-round events and activities including a 4th of July Parade and fireworks, a Mother’s Day Vintage Market, the rodeo, the Indian Creek Festival with cardboard kayaking, a farmers’ market, and the super popular Winter Festival that seems to be right out of a Hallmark movie.  Indian Creek runs through the heart of downtown, and there is a paved pathway for biking or walking along it. Indian Creek Plaza offers new restaurants and a beautiful place to hang out.  This little city offers some beautiful parks, and if you want to fish or cool off in the hot summer, there is Lake Lowell on the south side of town.
