Workforce Housing for Jackson Hole
25 MILES FROM TOWN · REAL LEASES, REAL HOUSING
Jackson Hole runs on people who can’t find housing in Jackson Hole. Resorts, hospitals, restaurants, and construction crews all hire faster than the town builds beds — which is why so much of the workforce lives on the Idaho side of Teton Pass. Teton Flats is purpose-built for exactly this: 72 brand-new one and two bedroom apartments in Victor, Idaho, 25 miles from Jackson Town Square and 25 miles from Grand Targhee, with year-round and seasonal leases and employer partnership options.
This page is for two readers: workers who have the job but not the housing, and employers trying to solve housing for a team.
If you have a Jackson or Targhee job and nowhere to live
The commute is the trade, so start there: 25 miles over Teton Pass, roughly 35–45 minutes in normal conditions, with a weekday START commuter bus as backup. We wrote an honest guide to it — winter included — at the Victor to Jackson commute guide. Grand Targhee staff have it easier still: the resort is reached through Driggs with no mountain pass on the drive — see our guide to apartments near Driggs and Grand Targhee.
The math is why people do it. Comparable one-bedrooms in Jackson typically run well over $2,500–$3,500 a month when they exist at all. At Teton Flats, current rents are posted live on the availability page — and a two-bedroom / two-bath split with a roommate cuts the number roughly in half again (at the 2-bedroom rent posted as of this writing, $2,450, that’s about $1,225 each). One thing to know: we lease whole apartments, not beds — you choose your roommate, and both of you are on the lease. No bunk-room lotteries.
What you get: in-unit washer and dryer, air conditioning, quartz counters and stainless appliances, dedicated secure ski and bike storage, on-site parking, and 9-foot ceilings — brand-new construction, not a converted motel. Seasonal-length leases are available for winter and summer staff, and year-round leases for everyone done with the housing scramble. See floor plans for layouts.
If you’re an employer arranging staff housing
Housing is the recruiting problem in Teton County, and we work with employers on it directly, three ways: block or corporate leases (master-lease a set of units for the season or the year — you control assignment), preferred referral (no commitment; your staff get priority placement), and stipend partnerships (point an existing housing stipend at real inventory, with occupancy reporting to HR). Seasonal terms are available for winter and summer staffing peaks.
The full program — drive times from your worksite, unit specs, and an inquiry form that reaches leasing directly — is at our employer housing partnerships page, or contact the leasing office and ask for employer partnerships.
Why the workforce lives in Teton Valley
This isn’t a workaround — it’s how the region actually works. Thousands of commuters cross Teton Pass daily, and employers on both sides of the range are practiced at valley-based staff. Victor gives workers a real town (groceries, restaurants, breweries, a school district) rather than a dormitory, and Idaho’s everyday costs run below Jackson’s resort pricing. The full picture — housing, costs, and the tradeoffs — is in our Jackson Hole housing & cost of living guide.
The job’s in Jackson. The housing’s in Victor.
