Checked daily for new monthly Zillow releases, not new daily prices. Income and crime data are updated separately, not by the daily housing-data check. Unavailable means observation dates are missing or invalid.
This ranks each county by its median home value divided by its median household income — how many years of a typical local income it would take to buy a typical local home. Housing researchers generally treat about 3× income as manageable and 5× or more as severely stretched. Coverage is 43 of 43 tracked counties in Idaho; income figures come from the Census Bureau's American Community Survey and home values from Zillow.
Violent crime rates below are a population-weighted average of each county's reporting cities from the FBI's Uniform Crime Reporting Program, covering 21 of 43 tracked counties in Idaho. Counties with no FBI-reporting city aren't shown.
HomePriceMap has standalone pages for 28 Idaho cities with both a current Zillow home value and enough FBI reporting coverage for a meaningful local profile. Among those tracked cities, the median home value is $422,224.
Blaine County has the highest median home value in Idaho at $1,101,790. This is often searched as the "richest" or "wealthiest" county in Idaho — though it's worth being precise about what's being measured here: median home value reflects property prices, not household income or net worth. The two usually correlate, but a county can have expensive homes without having the highest-earning residents, particularly in areas with a lot of vacation or second homes.
Teton County has the highest median household income in Idaho at $99,805. If what you're really after is the "richest" or "wealthiest" county in Idaho, this is the closer answer — income measures what households actually earn each year, while home values measure what property costs. Neither is quite the same as wealth, which would also account for savings, investments and property people already own outright.
Clark County has the lowest median home value of the 43 Idaho counties tracked here, at $251,571. Keep in mind that low home prices often reflect limited local job markets, distance from major metro areas, or shrinking population — affordability alone doesn't tell you whether somewhere is a good fit.
The typical (median) county in Idaho has a home value of $394,611, against $230,723 for the median U.S. county — roughly 71.0% higher. Figures come from Zillow's monthly Home Value Index; this site checks for new data daily.
