Top Idaho County for Having the Highest Number of College Grads?
Ah, Idaho – the land of potatoes and stunning landscapes, but not exactly known to be a "college degree factory." Can you believe it? There are a lot of studies out there (since 2015) that paint the same picture... only a quarter of Idahoans ages 25 and up can call themselves college grads.
Do you live in Idaho and do you have a Bachelor's degree from college? If so, you're among a quarter of the population in Idaho. That's crazy.
