Southeast Boise Reviews
Rating 4.07 out of 5 71 reviews
As somebody who doesn’t like living in suburbs, especially large suburbs, I actually kind of like Southeast Boise. The proximity to the Oregon Trail is especially nice, as it provides a lot nice walking paths and attracts a lot of birds. Simplot is also nice at times, when it’s not crowded for baseball or soccer games. Being close to Albertsons and also not far from Fred Meyer is very convenient, and both are easy to navigate to. It feels safe, although the people are not the friendliest and is noticeably conservative, so maybe it is not the best for LGBTQ people like me. It is also very much a middle-class neighborhood which is admittedly alienating. Luckily for the most part people leave each other alone to go about their business.
Southeast Boise is the perfect community for all ages. There are several public parks and playgrounds for kids that are easy to walk to from almost every neighborhood. There is easy access to grocery stores, restaurants, and shopping. Boise State University is minutes away if someone is interested in events or college sports. The foothills, filled with miles of hiking trails, can be seen from almost every east-facing window. And there is no hustle and bustle of dealing with commuters; this is the ideal part of town.
Southeast Boise is a great community to live in. Great education all around, friendly neighbors and many places to go out.
