The City of Kuna
The Treasure Valley consists of Boise, the capital city of Idaho and a number of outlying communities. To learn more about Boise or its regions, click the colored area you are interested in on the map provided to the left.
The city of Boise sits in southwestern Idaho, at the point where desert meets mountain range and rural past meets high-tech future. Although the population of Idaho's capital city is 160,000 and growing, the City of Trees remains essentially uncomplicated. Boise is a city for outdoorsy, active people who respect old-fashioned values and like to have fun. Residents fish in the Boise River as it flows through downtown, catching healthy rainbow trout. They run along the Boise River Greenbelt during their lunch hours. They jump into their cars for the short drive to skiing at Bogus Basin, whitewater rafting on nearby rivers or water skiing at Lucky Peak Reservoir. Boiseans also love their parks, especially the series of large riverside parks named after grand ladies in the city's history -- Julia Davis, Ann Morrison and Kathryn Albertson. Boise has nine acres of parks for every 1,000 residents, almost twice the national average.
When Boise residents aren't participating in such activities, they're watching sports. Boise State University football is highly popular, but residents also support professional baseball, basketball and hockey teams.
