One of the things I love about Caldwell is the sense of community. People here are friendly and welcoming, and there are plenty of local events and festivals that bring the community together. The downtown area is charming, with its historic buildings and unique shops and restaurants.
In terms of livability, Caldwell offers a good balance between a small-town feel and access to amenities. The cost of living is relatively affordable compared to bigger cities, which makes it easier to find a comfortable place to live. The crime rate is also relatively low, which adds to the overall sense of safety and security.
When it comes to education, Caldwell has some great schools, both at the elementary and secondary level. There's also the College of Idaho, which provides higher education opportunities right in the community.
Transportation-wise, while Caldwell may not have a robust public transportation system like larger cities, it's still fairly easy to get around by car. The city is conveniently located near major highways, making it accessible to other nearby cities like Boise.
Overall, Caldwell, Idaho is a wonderful place to call home. It offers a friendly community, affordable living, good schools, and a charming downtown area.

Caldwell has a lot to offer older people. At this time there are not enough care givers in this are. Right now I am working with a company that provides assistance to individuals that need assistance with grocery shopping, cooking , cleaning g and making appointments. I enjoy this type of work.

Community Transportation is virtually nonexistent. It is an older small city, and downtown area has a large aging population.
