你们好，请大家支持 爱达荷州 (Idaho) 加入 华人世界分区， 美国版里面！
Although Idaho is a relatively small state and probably unheard of by
many people, it is a wonderful place where you can find the cleanest
air, the most beautiful trees, and the friendliest people. We have the
famous Sun Valley, with a world-class ski resort and our capital city,
Boise, known as the City of Trees. You might also be a fan of our Boise
Bronco football team, who currently are ranked No. 4 in the nation. The
city of trees is also named the best town to live by Outside Magazine,
2010. I am proud to be an Idahoan!

THE LIVING: Boise, to put it mildly, has been on a roll. Government,
education, and health care remain core industries, but dozens of high-
tech startups have moved to town, joining behemoths like Hewlett-Packard
and Micron Technology. And while its population has more than doubled in
the past 30 years and jaded locals bemoan the sprawl, Boise has managed
its growth impressively well: The city is home to nearly 2,000 acres of
parks and a 25-mile greenbelt. The outlying areas feel a bit bland, but
the older neighborhoods have that Boulder vibe—cruiser bikes, farmers'
markets, and prayer flags—only with reasonably priced homes.
THE PLAYGROUND: With a few play waves already in city limits, a $6.7
million white water park in the works, and life-list runs on the Payette
and Salmon within a two-hour drive, the paddling is exceptional and only
getting better. There's also a healthy triathlon community and a robust
road-biking scene. In winter, before or after work, you can get a quick
ski in—nordic or alpine—at Bogus Basin Ski Area, just 16 miles up the
road. (Tip: The climb up is also a classic road ride.) And those brown
hills above town are laced with more than 135 miles of hiking and
mountain-biking trails. Yup, you're going to need a bigger Rocket Box.
THE NEIGHBORHOOD: The Northend neighborhood is as good as Idaho gets:
You can walk to the local coffee shop, bike downtown via paths, plant
some veggies at the community garden, or hop on singletrack at the end
of your block. | e****n
