There are only 48 hospitals recorded in Idaho, that is why they have quite low employment rates for family and general practitioners. Despite not very high employment rates, Idaho is popular for being a very affordable place to live in the country. The state also has high wages, made even better when you balance it with its cost of living rates. A state that pays well and does not charge too much on everyday expenses? Yes, please!
