Alimony in Caldwell: how it is calculated
Alimony in Caldwell follows Idaho law, not a local rule — the same statute applies whether the case is filed in Canyon County or anywhere else in the state. Here is what that formula produces, and where a Caldwell case is actually heard.
Where a Caldwell case goes
A divorce filed in Caldwell is heard by the Idaho court for Canyon County. The judge applies the state statute below; the county sets the filing procedure, not the amount. Caldwell has about 73,088 residents (Census Bureau, 2024 estimate).

Does Caldwell have its own rule?
No. Idaho Code § 32-705 applies across Idaho, so a case from Caldwell is decided by the same numbers as one filed anywhere else in the state. What changes locally is the courthouse, the clerk's procedure and how long the docket takes — not the amount.
What the statute says
Idaho Code § 32-705 — Idaho spousal maintenance factors.
