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

As the largest city in Idaho and its capital, Boise anchors the Treasure Valley. Few places combine an outdoor lifestyle like this one with a downtown you can explore on foot, packed with shops, restaurants and events. The Boise River Greenbelt winds right through the middle of the city, and the foothills trail network begins where town ends.

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

  • Foothills trails stretching hundreds of miles, right outside the city
  • Ski days at Bogus Basin, just a short drive up the mountain
  • Sports, arts and events from Boise State University
