Forget Portland and Seattle — people priced out of expensive California cities are buying homes in Idaho for ‘Monopoly money’

Idaho may be the new frontier for Californians.

In a new Bloomberg story, the reporters Prashant Gopal and Noah Buhayar describe an "echo boom" in which Californians are invading cities in landlocked states out west, like Boise, Idaho; Phoenix, Arizona; and Reno, Nevada.

The article said the move was ignited by California’s record housing prices, volatile politics, high taxes, and "constant threat of natural disaster," like the recent wildfires in the state.
