EMMETT

Stunning Emmett, Idaho, is located just north of the Treasure Valley. Gorgeous vistas of the Emmett Valley’s rich landscape await you as you descend into the valley. Emmett is a throwback to simpler times despite its convenient location at the base of Squaw Butte and with the Payette River running through it. Everything you could possibly want is right there within the city lines, making it a proud little town. Emmett is ideal for those who value tranquil, small town life due to its abundance of excellent dining options, first-rate medical facilities, excellent educational opportunities, and warm, welcoming community.

Emmett’s population has increased gradually over the previous decade, yet it is still only slightly over 7,500 strong. Located in a beautiful valley, the city of Boise can be reached in just over half an hour by car. Your children will enjoy the convenience of being able to walk or ride their bikes to local Emmett schools and parks. This is a wonderful community in which to raise a family. There is a lot of enthusiasm for Emmett, Idaho, both during the yearly Emmett Cherry Festival and at the local high school football games.
