About Treasure Valley Info
The Treasure Valley is the broad agricultural and urban basin in southwestern Idaho that follows the Boise River from the Boise Mountains down through Boise, Garden City, Eagle, Meridian, Nampa, and Caldwell and on into Oregon — about 800,000 people across roughly a dozen cities. This site gathers the official sources for the whole valley into one place, organised by what you are trying to do rather than which agency happens to own the answer.
