I live north of Pocatello in a slightly bigger city - you're going to hear a lot of differing opinion on your questions if you visit. Keep in mind this part of Idaho is primarily white, with Latinos and Native Americans next by numbers. There are some, but few Asians and African Americans compared to other cities. Most people I know are pretty tolerant, live and let live. But it's good to be aware of how the numbers stack up before you come if you are not wanting to be one of a few. Check out the latest U.S. Census for this area for a better breakdown of numbers.

Pocatello is in Bannock County.

I'm a minority. I briefly passed through Pocatello, ID almost a year ago. I was not there long enough to develope an opinion.
