Coeur d’Alene, Idaho has been partially settled since ancient times. The tribe that built the first hunting and fishing villages refers to themselves as Schitsu'umsh, or “those who are found here.” These days, CDA, as it’s known, is populated with people who visited one of the city’s many ski resorts, casinos, and golf courses and decided to stay. Indeed, the area is truly beautiful with mountain views and lakes that attract bald eagles. And if you do need the big city, Spokane is just 45 minutes west.
While the tourism industry has provided good jobs and a thriving cultural scene, it’s also worked to push up housing prices. The average rent on a one-bedroom apartment is $2,095, up a shocking 73% from 2021. The median home price is $595K, up 8.5% over 2021. Especially if you’re renting, you’re going to be settling for less space.
Thankfully, there are plenty of self-storage facilities that can help make your move easier and cheaper. With so many places, it’s not hard to find a place close to home. And even if you need a larger unit, it’s more affordable than you think. If you’re planning a move to “Pointed Heart,” be sure to keep self-storage in mind.
