Boise Overview

Boise, Idaho is the type of town that people are happy to call home. In fact, this capital city is consistently ranked among the best places to live by big name publications like Forbes and Time Magazine, so don’t be surprised if you’re greeted with tons of smiles by the strangers you pass on the street. This little Pacific Northwest place is big on personality and with plenty to do and with a wide variety of options in homes and Boise apartments available to residents, this city is a true haven.

What is the history of Boise?

Long before its founding in the 1860s, Boise was serving as an oasis for French fur trappers, members of the military, and pioneers who found themselves trekking through the dry, rough terrain of the high desert region as they headed west. The original town of Fort Boise was actually about forty miles from the current city’s location and was abandoned about twenty years later. After massacres and robberies became rampant along the Oregon Trail, Boise’s current location was established in 1864 by the United States Army. Here, it served as the central business hub and supply stop for the region as the gold rush to the Boise Basin was underway. Today, much of the city’s culture reflects its original westward expansion roots.

How is the weather in Boise?

Boise is a sunny place, averaging about 220 days of sunshine each year, and this high desert climate is low on humidity, which makes the climate comfortable for outdoor adventures throughout the year. Boise boasts of four distinct seasons, with summers ranging from hot days to cool evenings while winters tend to stay pretty mild. The nearby foothills are known to get plenty of snow, which makes the neighboring ski resorts prime weekend spots, but the valley is rarely under snow cover for more than a few days at a time.

How do I get around town?

Boise’s small town size makes navigation easy. Congestion isn’t really a problem like it is in other capital cities, so many people have cars, and the city’s grid layout makes it pretty easy to get from Point A to Point B. A substantial amount of bike and pedestrian paths can be found all over town, making travel safe for those who aren’t driving. ValleyRide, Boise’s public transportation system, provides 27 bus routes, ranging from downtown to inter-county options that connect Ada and Canyon counties. Boise airport is just about five miles from downtown, making travel into our out of the city a cinch.

What is the Boise commute like?

Interstate 184 runs right through the middle of Boise, which makes it easy to get into and out of town. About 78% of the workforce lives in homes or apartments in Boise, which eliminates most of the traffic congestion seen in other cities during rush hour. The average one-way commute is just 17 minutes, and almost every commuter who isn’t using public transportation arrives at his or her destination in less than a half-hour. Speaking of rush hour – rush hour is just a single hour. The low population of Boise helps keep congestion down, and the roads are free and clear in no time. Boise folks are known to be just as courteous on the street as they are on the sidewalk, so wave thank you when they give you room to merge.

What are the local media outlets?

A number of print publications can be found in Boise, but the Idaho Statesman is the only one with a primary focus on the capital city. If you’re looking for the goings on around the city, Boise Weekly is your best bet. This free weekly paper is filled with events, trends, and opinions for all things Boise. A range of radio stations in town include 670 KBOI for Talk radio, 100.3 KQXR for Hard rock, 04.3 KAWO for Country and 103.5 KISSFM for your favorite Pop hits!

Why live in Boise, ID?

There’s something about a safe city with a secure job market and smiling citizens that tends to draw folks in. The small town vibe is the perfect place to put down roots, and despite the city’s quaint size, there’s always something to do and plenty of affordable Boise apartments waiting for you. Festivals and fairs, arts and craft brews are always on the calendar, and the pleasant climate means you can head outdoors to take in some fresh air and get acquainted the mountains, water, and trees that surround this special place.

What Boise landmarks should I see?

The area south of downtown, better known as Broncos Territory, is where you’ll find Boise State University and its famous blue turf, which plays host to the Potato Bowl each year. In terms of historical landmarks, the Boise Depot can’t be beat. This 1925 Spanish-style structure offers tours, and the grounds are well-kept and peaceful places to read a book, picnic, and relax.Bonneville Point, Fort Boise, and the ruts of the Oregon Trail are easily accessible just outside of town.

What is there to do around Boise?

This Wild West town is filled with stories and speculation about what once was. Old Idaho Penitentiary has been spinning stories since it was built in 1872, and it’s now a favorite spot for crime-curious visitors and overnight ghost-watching. Outdoors activities are a big deal in little Boise. Skiing, snowshoeing, and tubing take up the winter months while the summer is dedicated to rafting and hiking.

Any annual festivals or Boise events to know?

Tour de Fat finds its way to Boise every year, and with it, New Belgium Brewing Company brings its infamous bike ride, plenty of music, live entertainment, a fashion show, and of course, amazing brews and good food. The Gene Harris Jazz Festival, Art in the Park, and Old Boise Oktoberfest are also crowd favorites.

Where are the nearby vacation spots?

Since the airport is just down the road, you can fly to any destination easily. For weekend road trips, you could head to Miracle Hot Springs in Hagerman. Of course, Yellowstone offers plenty of ways to get away, including a seven-day loop that can take you through Pocatello, ID, West Yellowstone, MT, and Jackson, WY.

Where is the best place to move in Boise?

Downtown Hyde Park is a place where trendy, upscale residents converge. The town's old charm has been refurbished, and plenty of restaurants, cafes, and boutique shops can be found within the boundaries. The Boise Bench is an eclectic neighborhood that's recently started to see a resurgence from its beginning roots around the 1940s. It's a good place for families, and with an eye on this up-and-coming area, businesses are likely to begin to move in, too. The North End is Boise's original suburb, and it still maintains it's family-friendly appeal by boasting of safe streets tree-lined paths that are the perfect accompaniment to peaceful evening strolls.
