What it’s like
The place. Laclede is a very small community in Bonner County, Idaho, in the northern part of the state. Homes here are valued well above what is typical across much of the country, and almost no residents live below the poverty line. Winters are cold and snowy, with December the coldest month, while summers are warm, with August the warmest.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, with others in shops, manufacturing, and professional and business services. Across Bonner County, the largest workplaces include the Lake Pend Oreille School District, Bonner General Hospital and Idaho Forest Laclede, a sawmill. Unemployment across the county has stayed close to where it was a year ago, and the county has added a few more jobs than the year before.
Things to do. Round Lake and Round Lake State Park are both a short drive away, offering a lake and a protected area to spend time by. The Priest River is also close by. A longer drive brings you to Lake Pend Oreille, one of the best known lakes in the region.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Laclede’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively high. 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 Bonner County and the Sandpoint, ID metro.
