Q. What do you love most about Boise? A. I was born and raised here, and I’m a proud Bronco through and through. One of the things I love most about Boise is its size—big enough to support a thriving economy but small enough to feel connected. Our city genuinely values and uplifts small businesses, which means we have a strong sense of community. And, of course, I appreciate the slower, more intentional pace of life that sets Boise apart from the hustle of larger metro areas. Q. What are your favorite neighborhoods in Boise, and why? A. Winstead Park tops the list for me. It’s the perfect mix of convenience and charm—manageable lot sizes, a quiet vibe, and a neighborhood that’s growing just enough to stay fresh while holding tight to its mid-century roots. The Highlands would have to be second. The architecture is next-level, and those views are unbeatable. If you’re looking to feel inspired every time you step outside, this is the place. And then there’s Hillcrest—hands down one of the most vibrant and diverse neighborhoods in town. It’s a dream for anyone who loves to be active outside with plenty of places to walk, run, or just soak up the outdoors.
