Government, education and outdoor recreation meet in Boise. It is Idaho's capital and largest city, the center of the Treasure Valley, and home to Boise State University and a growing job market.
The city's walkable downtown brings together restaurants, shops and events. The Boise River Greenbelt runs through its heart and the foothills trail system starts at the edge of town, which helps explain why first-time buyers, families and retirees are drawn here.
