What it’s like
The place. Driggs is a small city in Teton County, Idaho, with a population that is mostly working-age and middle-aged. Incomes sit a little below the county's, and homes here carry high values, though most are lived in by their owners rather than rented. Winters are cold and snowy, with January the coldest month, and summers are warm without being hot, with a modest yearly total of rain and melted snow.
Work. Many residents work in schools, hospitals and social care, followed by restaurants, hotels and entertainment, shops, and the building trades. Among the largest workplaces in Driggs are Teton County District, Broulims Supermarkets and Teton Valley Hospital. Unemployment is low and has barely moved over the past year, and the county has added jobs. Commutes are fairly short, and a good number of people work from home.
Things to do. Grand Teton National Park, the best known of the nearby places, is a longer drive away, as is Jenny Lake, a lake within the park. Jackson Lake, a reservoir, is also a longer drive away, and makes another destination for a day out. The area suits anyone who likes mountains, water and open country.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Driggs’ census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively moderate. It is meant for planning, not a substitute for a local risk assessment or a flood map: FEMA’s index.
From the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 census and its American Community Survey (2020–2024 five-year estimates), and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A survey, so each figure has a margin of error, and figures it is not sure of are left out. More on Teton County and the Jackson, WY-ID metro.
