Ok, I may be a little naïve, (or a lot), and I admit that I almost never watch the news, exactly What national attention has caused Boise to become an expensive city to live in?
Boise has been picked by Forbes, Money, Sunset and a few other national magazines in the top ten best cities for about 5 years. Idaho had the highest growth rate of any state in 2017 and I think they all settled in the Boise area. Good colleges, great outdoors recreation 2 or 3 large electronic companies highly rated medical care. And the BOISE STATE BRONCOS FOOTBALL team playing in a stadium with Blue Turf.
Lots of new people and a housing market that can't keep up means housing costs have risen over 10% a year for quite awhile.
There doesn't seem to be an end to it.
