Tremendous Growth
Star, Idaho
This small town has recently grown to 9,500 people. With the completion of a new interchange from Highway 16 (that will eventually connect with Interstate 84), this town is on the verge of becoming the next boomtown of the Treasure Valley. Big companies like Target and Albertsons have recently purchased land in Star to bring larger-scale commercial endeavors to the area. Like Eagle, the city of Star is between the Boise River and the foothills. Its name comes from the 1800s travelers on their way to Middleton or Boise who used the “star” on the schoolhouse to find east and west. The name stuck.
