Neighborhood Data Almanac

The Neighborhood Data Almanac provides data snapshots about residents, households and the built and natural environments for the geographic boundaries of each of Boise’s registered neighborhood associations.

Neighborhood Associations and Planning

Neighborhood planning is a collaboration between the city and neighborhood associations to guide the future of Boise's neighborhoods. Boise uses a Geographic Area Planning (GAP) program that assigns city planners to specific neighborhoods so they are familiar with the unique issues facing each area.

Boise currently has 34 registered neighborhood associations working to engage residents.
