First moved here in 2009 and the people have always been friendly not one rude person walking down the street even now in 2023. Nampa has grown so much over the years and has become a wonderful place for people traveling to stop by and check it out. The old downtown easily acceptable and is very safe. Plenty of things to do; from walking to Knick knack shops, to going to a library, or even stopping by a tuxedo shop. It is also the center of the treasure valley. Some of the architecture when you first drive through the entrance you can tell it is older however there is plenty of modern buildings just with a more vintage feel to it. The people are very caring and welcoming.
Great place to grow up as a naive white child. If you’re not politically aware or don’t care if you live next door to what amounts to a modern day terrorist, (as the republican party has become nothing less than), you’ll truly enjoy living in Idaho. The air is clean. The streets are mostly litter-free. The people are kind, as long as you don’t stick out as a person of color, an atheist, a member of the LGBTQ+/trans community, or anything other than a white “American” with a concealed carry permit. Overall I enjoyed my childhood here, but as I’ve grown and learned about the intolerance of certain, (a large number of Idahoans), individuals I’ve grown to have a strong disdain for my state. It IS geographically beautiful and has a lot to offer. There is a growing number of accepting and loving people that are growing up in and/or moving into the state, so I believe that it can and WILL become a place of TRUE beauty one day. I hope to one day be proud of my home state.
It is a very calm and collective city, and has all four seasons. The summers hot and the the winter cold but the most precious thing is fall and spring. In the Fall leaves turn a beautiful shades or orange and red, the spring it rain with flowers and fuzzy from the trees. The community is pleasant, it is safe and less crime then some places. There are many jobs and some will hire on the spot!
