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

Right at the edge of Boise, the foothills trail system begins, and through the middle of the city runs the Boise River Greenbelt. That outdoor access sits alongside a downtown that's easy to explore on foot, packed with shops, restaurants and events. As Idaho's largest city and its capital, Boise anchors the Treasure Valley.

The city is home to Boise State University and an expanding job market, and its housing ranges widely: condos close to downtown, historic bungalows and newer neighborhoods.
