Princeton is a small Palouse community where two-lane highways, wheat fields, and stands of towering evergreens set an easygoing pace. Set along Idaho State Highway 6 in Latah County, it offers quick access to nearby jobs, shopping, and dining in Potlatch and the university energy of Moscow, while preserving the quiet of country living. Weekend drives roll out on the White Pine Scenic Byway, a forested route prized for autumn color and wildlife viewing, maintained by the Idaho Transportation Department on the official White Pine Scenic Byway site. A short hop west puts you on the Skyline Drive of Mary Minerva McCroskey State Park, where ridge-top vistas and picnic sites are detailed by Idaho State Parks and Recreation.
Families appreciate the close-knit feel of local schools; Princeton is served by Potlatch School District #285, which outlines programs, calendars, and athletics on the district’s official website. For higher education, the University of Idaho’s research, arts, and Division I athletics are just down the road in Moscow and showcased on the University of Idaho’s official site. Outdoor time is easy to come by, with nearby trailheads and campgrounds managed by the Idaho Panhandle National Forests on the U.S. Forest Service’s official pages, and everyday conveniences and community events in Troy.
