About Star, Idaho

Star, Idaho is a rapidly growing small city in Ada County with over 12,000 residents, located along State Highway 44 between Eagle and Middleton. Known for its rural character and strong sense of community, Star offers residents a peaceful small-town lifestyle with convenient access to Boise metro area amenities just 20 minutes east. The city has experienced significant growth in recent years as families seeking larger lots and a more rural atmosphere discover Star's appeal. The community features a mix of established horse properties, newer residential subdivisions, and agricultural land transitioning to housing developments. Star's climate in USDA Zone 6b presents typical Treasure Valley challenges with hot, dry summers often reaching 95-100°F and cold winters with occasional heavy snow. Clay soil is prevalent throughout Star, particularly in newer developments where construction activity has compacted the ground, requiring annual core aeration and soil amendment programs for healthy lawn establishment. Many Star properties feature larger lot sizes averaging 8,000-10,000 square feet of lawn or more, with some rural properties on acreage requiring comprehensive landscape management including pasture mowing, fence line trimming, and extensive irrigation maintenance. The city's growing popularity among families and professionals who value space, privacy, and small-town community creates strong demand for reliable lawn care services that understand both traditional residential maintenance and rural property needs.
