All About

Living in Boise State University, ID

Located in Boise, Idaho, Boise State University is the largest educational institution in the state. With roughly 20,000 students attending in autumn of 2010, the university is both academically rich and culturally diverse. Those looking to rent apartments in the BSU area will find that the surrounding city has much to offer in the way of recreation and leisure.

One of the first attractions apartment renters in the BSU area should visit is the Old Idaho Penitentiary. With a history of over 100 years, this abandoned prison has been host to more than 13,000 inmates. Though self-guided tours are available, a professional tour guide is highly recommended. For those with children in tow, a trip to the Discovery Center is a real treat. With interactive exhibits ranging from a green screen to a giant bubble maker, there's something for everyone to enjoy.

Apartment renters looking for a natural respite from the busier BSU area should head to Kathryn Albertson Park, a wild oasis in the middle of town. Containing numerous local critters including turtles, birds, deer and mink, this is a great place to take some time to relax. For a little bit of fun at the links, drive on over to Pierce Park Green. This course boasts a nine-hole par three, great for practicing your short game, as well as an adjacent driving range to test out those new drivers. Lastly, apartment renters in the BSU area with a penchant for aerial hunters will be thrilled to spend some time at the World Center for Birds of Prey. Here you can view the rare California Condor and majestic Peregrine Falcon up close.

What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Boise State University

Most neighbors are friendly. Love that it's pet friendly. We have nice patios. I love our Rec center.

I'm unable to get out much, but when I do, there are stores close by. There is also a church and park close by.

I really like that the people are really nice and friendly they don't discriminate , also there is a lot of kids around there surprisingly.
