About Moscow Idaho

Moscow, Idaho, nicknamed the "City with a Smile", comes by its friendly reputation naturally. Home to over 22,000 residents, Moscow personifies the image of small-town America with a "big-city" feel. Located in North Idaho's panhandle, Moscow is surrounded by Moscow Mountain and the rolling hills of the Palouse.

Cultural activities such as the Lionel Hampton Jazz Festival, Renaissance Fair, and Rendevous In The Park are part of the reason Moscow is repeatedly ranked as one of the "Best 100 Small Art Towns in America".

Sport enthusiasts are never lacking for entertainment...both as spectators and participants. The University of Idaho Vandals are part of the Western Athletic Conference, and just 8 miles away in Pullman, WA, the Pac-10 conference is represented by the Washington State Cougars. Football, basketball, volleyball, and track are just a few sports that bring premier student-athletes to our community. A variety of outdoor recreational activities, such as mountain biking, hunting, fishing, skiing, and white-water rafting are within an easy drive.

Moscow Idaho real estate is as diverse as it's topography. The housing market reflects both historic charm and progressive atmosphere. Moscow truly is a rare find, where its' residents enjoy small-town pleasures with the benefits and opportunities of a university town.

Smiling really does come naturally in Moscow, Idaho!
