Most crews covering Mountain Home are actually based in Boise, Meridian, or Nampa, and many start their hourly clock the moment they leave their warehouse — ask directly how travel time is billed. The area is known for sudden, strong wind gusts, so keep loose boxes and wrapped furniture away from open driveway space while loading. If you're moving onto or near the Air Force base, notify your mover in advance so drivers can clear any base-access requirements.

How this works: IRS SOI County-to-County Migration Data, 2022-2023. The IRS compares the address on consecutive tax returns, so every move here is a real filed household. The catch: it publishes annually with about a two-year lag, counts Elmore County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 70% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
