Idaho Falls is mostly Mormon, so if you belong to the LDS, then that's maybe where you might wanna wind up.
Pocatello's mainly a college town.
I've lived in both places...MY preference is Pocatello, just b/c of the nightlife.

Winter is long, cold and snowy. It just snowed in I F about two weeks ago.

i lived in id falls [olympia street near airport, 53 miles to rwmc], and also lived there in the Winter... as you know, it gets and stays quite cold there... great fishing, hunting, snowmobiling, etc of course. no nite life, my son was ostrasized because he was NOT of LDS orientation, and was the neighbor's kids were NOT allowed to play with him.
as an alternative, i would suggest at least looking at the hanford site here in richland, washington. i chose to move for a variety of reasons, and found this area to be superb for raising children... climate is much warmer, and gets Hot in the summer.... winters are probably considered non-existent compared to Id Falls... we had one storm of about 12" this year, and they called it a "30 year" snow. one downside is that the wind does Blow here, and there are occasional dust storms...
they are hiring for some nuclear things, hpt's for sure... amongst others depending on current scope.
relocation just a thought... i would echo the other posts above, and IMHO deem them to be quite accurate... blackfoot was rumored to have more violence from racial tensions [Indian vs Hispanic seemed to be the more talked about consensus] than anywhere else.
i found housing on the very west end of id falls to be very affordable, they were bldg new stuff just west of the dairy [w/the homemade ice cream and cheese curds] which was like, the last thing before you were really out of town...maybe some of those are renting out now??

Stardust Lounge on a Saturday night.
If you have the time - check out the Opal Mines up north of IF.
