Boise's booming: Insight and the city's response to concerns

“Boise is doing much better than many downtowns across the country. There isn’t a glut of office space on the market here, which is a significant contrast to other cities projecting no new demand due to the shift to hybrid work,” Dixon said. “Downtown Boise’s office buildings are not only being constructed but also occupied, showcasing its robust economic performance.”
He emphasizes that Boise’s appeal extends beyond just its economic growth. The city’s walkable, mixed-use environment with restaurants, cafes, breweries and public spaces aligns with the preferences of the majority of new households.
“Downtown Boise offers a unique blend of amenities within a five-minute walk, making it an attractive place to live, work and play,” Dixon said. “This trend is reinforced by the fact that people increasingly want to live close to their jobs.”
