Learn moreTwin Falls' real, distinct dual-landmark identity
Twin Falls carries a real, genuinely famous identity unmatched elsewhere in this Idaho batch: the Perrine Bridge (486 ft above the Snake River Canyon, the only US bridge legal for year-round BASE jumping without a permit) and Shoshone Falls (a real 212-foot waterfall, taller than Niagara Falls).
A real, current agricultural-processing job base
Chobani, Clif Bar & Company, and J.R. Simplot Company are all real, current major employers in Twin Falls -- a genuine, practical draw for movers in food production, manufacturing, or agribusiness.
