Star, Idaho is a growing community that shines as bright as its name!  It is a quaint agricultural town nestled within the Northwest plains of the Treasure Valley that has the Boise River meandering through its southern borders.  This suburb of Boise is characterized by its rich history, farmsteads, and small-town atmosphere.  Many of its residents enjoy the stunning views of Shafer Butte, the Owyhee Mountains, and the Boise foothills. There is a variety of living options available including farms, single-family properties on acreage, new construction, and rural or municipal subdivisions.  Star is an ideal location to reside if you seek affordable living within commuting distance of Boise and Nampa.   It is also situated midway between Eagle and Middleton.

Star has a fascinating history reaching back to the 1870s.  It received its namesake from the first schoolhouse that was constructed by its pioneers which had a star nailed to the front door.  The star on the building was such a unique identifier that the building later became a landmark for travelers passing through.  Star also was en route to one of the later Oregon Trail branches and the Boise Interurban Railway system.  Agriculture has historically and continues to be a major part of the economy since the flat topography, irrigation systems, and climate all contribute to favorable conditions for growing crops. 

Its historic background can be witnessed in Downtown Star, which presents dozens of buildings with beautiful architecture.  Star’s revitalization project is making efforts to preserve and enhance the city’s core to celebrate its past. The city also pays homage to its roots with the business complex along Highway 44 designed with old west storefronts.
