Idaho's Capital, Boise, is known for its diverse community and vibrant downtown amenities. Boise is a thriving community, and has been repeatedly ranked as one of the top cities in the nation to live in. The Greenbelt hugs the Boise River for more than thirty miles snaking through the center of the city, and to the north the Boise foothills offer miles of hiking and biking trails for everyone to enjoy. From our warm, vibrant summers to snowy, blue-bird days on the mountain, Boise encompasses all amenities for families. Not only is there plenty to do in our enthusiastic downtown, but the rural communities only a short drive away are known for their welcoming, lively environments! Come see all that the Treasure Valley has to offer!
