Single-family homes. Data: Altos Research, week of November 2, 2026.

At the heart of the Treasure Valley sits Boise, the largest city in Idaho and its capital. Few places blend city and outdoors so easily: the foothills trail system begins right where town ends, and the Boise River Greenbelt winds straight through the middle of the city. Downtown is easy to explore on foot, packed with shops, restaurants and events.

With Boise State University and an expanding job market, the city has a broad mix of housing, including downtown condos, historic bungalows and newer neighborhoods.

Why people love Boise

  • Walking, biking and floating along the Boise River Greenbelt
  • A foothills trail network of hundreds of miles right outside town
  • Restaurants, shops and the Basque Block in a walkable downtown
  • Sports, arts and events at Boise State University
  • Bogus Basin skiing, just a short drive up the mountain

Living in Boise

Housing in Boise covers a lot of ground. The North End and East End are home to historic bungalows, Southeast Boise, Harris Ranch and West Boise feature newer homes, and condos and townhomes cluster near downtown.

Because price, lot size and home age can shift considerably from one neighborhood to the next, local, block-by-block knowledge goes a long way here.
