Area Guide
Niche Reviews 
Collister spans a large residential area at the base of the Boise foothills, as well as a section of the hills themselves. Known for its spacious single-family homes and tree-lined streets, the neighborhood provides a safe, comfortable environment. For the most private setting, search for rental properties in Collister's higher elevations.
On summer evenings, Castle Hills Park buzzes with sporting events and pick-up basketball games. The on-site dog park attracts local dog owners year-round.
A few restaurants are scattered across Collister, with most near State Street. Join your neighbors for wine tasting at the Local, an aptly-named spot known for its friendliness and house-made pretzels. Take a break from shopping and have lunch at 36th Street Bistro, where locals rave about the meatloaf sandwiches and Highland beef burgers. Downtown Boise, with its thriving restaurant and entertainment scene, lies just four miles to the southeast.

I have lived here my entire life so I don't really have anything to compare it to.

I don't have much experience with crime in the area but I know it exists. Drug usage is a common offence. Gun violence might also be a problem in some areas.

There are jobs available, but they may not be exactly what people are looking for. Low pay and not so great hours.
