Living in McCall



McCall is a very small city located in the state of Idaho. With a population of 3,982 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 a major vacation destination. Much of the city’s population is seasonal: many people own second homes and only live there part-time, during the vacation season. The effect on the local economy is that many of the businesses are dependent on tourist dollars, and may operate only during the high season. As the vacation season ends, McCall’s population drops significantly, such that year-round residents will notice that the city is a much quieter place to live.

Residents will find that the city is relatively quiet. This is because it is not over-populated, and it has fewer college students, renters, and young children - all of whom can be noisy at times. So, if you're looking for a relatively peaceful place to live, McCall is worth considering.

Compared to the rest of the country, citizens of McCall spend much less time in their cars: on average, their commute to work is only 9.48 minutes. This also means that noise and pollution levels in the city are less than they would otherwise be.

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