Downtown Boise and the foothill trails are only minutes apart, which makes it easy to enjoy both city life and the outdoors. The foothills trail system starts at the edge of town, and the Boise River Greenbelt runs right through the heart of the city.
As Idaho's capital and largest city, Boise is the center of the Treasure Valley. Its walkable downtown offers restaurants, shops and events, and with Boise State University and a growing job market, it attracts first-time buyers, families and retirees.
