Ammon, from Brigham
Written by Brigham Redd, who works this market every day.
What's being built, and where
Ammon is investing in expanded roads and improving infrastructure to support it's rapid growth.
Where people work
INL continues to be a strong attractor of all levels of work in partnership with Anatares Nuclear, iNEC, and INL critical minerals pilot plant. Coca-Cola is consolidating broader operations in Idaho Falls bringing more families closer, and Anheuser-Busch continues to invest in growth and development here.
Where values have moved
They have continued to climb steadily if slowly since covid. SE Idaho holds a trend of following behind national price fluctuations and rides a less precipitous line.
What to budget for, and where
Winter in Idaho Falls is regularly 8 months. Budget for a heating bill (check utility history). Vehicles with 4wheel drive are recommended though the city does do a good job at keeping streets clear it is best to rely on your own vehicles.
Your first weekend
A dinner near the greenbelt, a walk around the water or through the park. There is a decent food scene in Idaho Falls for the size of the city.
Getting around
Cars are needed for most places in Ammon/Idaho Falls. While sidewalks are being built, most routes cross a street where they are still missing.
Where the housing is
You won't find much over 4 stories in the area, though there are many more apartment/town home blocks being built for more affordable housing. It's not uncommon to see them near a 100yr old neighborhood with houses in various states of remodel.
The seasons
Winter is longer than most seasons. The wind will blow here for days sometimes. Be prepared for white outs, occasional heavy fog, etc. The summers can get warm 100+ but that is rare. Our falls are slightly longer than our springs but both are cherished by all here.
Where it has changed
The business corridors continue to grow with new businesses like Raising Canes and Chipotle now calling IF home.
