For many retirement is a time to slow down and reward yourself for decades of work. So where is the best place to retire? Where can retirees enjoy the most out of their retirement time here in the gem state? Stacker analyzed data and rankings to compile a list of the best places to retire in Idaho.

One of the main sources of data was from Niche, who ranks places to retire based on multiple factors including "cost of living, health care, recreation, and weather." Specifically looking at things that interest your typical retiree including easy access to indoor and outdoor recreation, like walking trails and water access.
