City of Boise

Boise offers a highly desirable quality of life. Located along the Boise River and nestled against the Rocky Mountain foothills, Boise is the capital, largest city, and hub of commerce, banking and government for the State of Idaho. The city offers many outdoor activities to local residents, from skiing at Bogus Basin Ski Resort to biking on the Boise River Greenbelt to boating at nearby reservoirs and lakes.   The Boise area has it all - desert, rivers, mountains and lakes for hiking, camping, kayaking, river rafting, hunting and fishing.

Many large regional, national and international companies are headquartered here, including Simplot Corporation, Boise Cascade, Albertsons, Micron Technology and Hewlett-Packard.

Boise is home to Boise State University, the state's largest university with an enrollment of over 15,000 students, as well as 34 grade schools, 9 junior high schools, and 5 high schools.

Boise...It's a GREAT place to live and call home.
