Living in McCall



McCall is a very small city located in the state of Idaho. With a population of 4,066 people and two associated neighborhoods, McCall is the 49th largest community in Idaho.

McCall home prices are not only among the most expensive in Idaho, but McCall real estate also consistently ranks among the most expensive in America.

One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their home: 21.55% of the workforce. While this number may seem small overall, as a fraction of the total workforce this is high compared to the rest of the county. These workers are often telecommuters who work in knowledge-based, white-collar professions. For example, Silicon Valley has large numbers of people who telecommute. Other at-home workers may be self-employed people who operate small businesses out of their homes.

Another notable thing is that McCall is an extremely popular vacation destination. A significant portion of the population is seasonal. During the vacation season, the city experiences a large influx of people who take up residence in second homes they own in the area. As the vacation season ends, the population drops again, leaving behind a substantially quieter and smaller city.

It is a fairly quiet city because there are relatively few of those groups of people who have a tendency to be noisy. (Children, for example, often can't help themselves from being noisy, and being parents ourselves, we know!) McCall has relatively few families with children living at home, and is quieter because of it. Renters and college students, for their own reasons, can also be noisy. McCall has few renters and college students. But the biggest reason it is quieter in McCall than in most places in America, is that there are just simply fewer people living here. If you think trees make good neighbors, McCall may be for you.

One of the benefits of McCall is that there is very little traffic. The average commute to work is 9.48 minutes, which is substantially less than the national average. Not only does this mean that the drive to work is less aggravating, but noise and pollution levels are lower as a result.

Being a small city, McCall does not have a public transit system used by locals to get to and from work.
