Is the Treasure Valley Still Growing? Here’s What You Need to Know About Idaho’s Booming Future

The Treasure Valley—anchored by Boise, Meridian, Eagle, Nampa, and Caldwell—isn’t just growing, it’s surging.

According to the Community Planning Association of Southwest Idaho (COMPASS), the region is projected to grow from around 688,000 people in 2018 to over 1,022,000 by 2040—a 53% increase. That’s not just a population bump; it’s a full-on transformation.

Ada County alone (home to Boise, Meridian, and Eagle) is expected to jump from ~535,800 people in 2024 to more than 715,800 by 2050—a nearly 30% increase. Canyon County, which includes Nampa and Caldwell, continues to see fast-paced growth too, adding over 36,000 new residents since 2020.

So what does this mean if you’re buying or selling a home?

Buyers can expect continued demand, with long-term value appreciation and more development projects in play. Getting in now could mean building equity as the market expands.

Sellers will benefit from an ever-growing pool of buyers, especially relocators from out of state. If your home is priced right and staged well, expect strong interest.

Relocating? You’ll find new housing options, updated infrastructure, and expanding school and commercial zones—making this a smart move for families and retirees alike.
