Other than the omission of Chubbuck from the list, another big surprise is the omission of Boise. You’d think that the big city would have something terrible about it but according to the list, Boise is a pretty great place to live. The story also points out something that we already knew about Idaho in general, but now specifically Twin Falls, that this state is not a great state for working women.
