What Affects Your Salary

Boise pays highest as St. Luke's and Saint Alphonsus compete for talent. Cost of living has risen with population influx but remains below national average (98%). Rural positions pay less but cost of living is very low. Specialty clinics (orthopedics, sports medicine) often pay above general practice. Idaho's no-income-tax neighbor (Wyoming) doesn't significantly impact wages.
