I was born and raised in Boise and left it at 18...Boise has really changed to those that new it years ago but,it is far better than say Spokane imho..I lived in Idaho Falls for a short time and did not care for the high desert region..I would rather see guys like the op or his son move to Boise than from California...There is still some good hunting/fishing an outdoor stuff really close to Boise..Boise is changing but what western city isn't...
Not a bad choice for the ops son in my opinion..There are far worse places to live..Did I mention Spokane...LOL
