Boise

Boise is the #137 metro by economic size ($50bn) in the panel and ranks #158/162 on absolute Metro Power and #114/162 on per-capita intensity. No pillar stands out as a clear strength; the binding concern is research. Locally it runs below the United States national average (MCC 36.6 vs CC 86.7).

Strengths

  • No standout strength.

Risk factors

  • Binding weakness — Research 25.5 (#134/162, Developing): a weak research base — fewer home-grown breakthroughs and spinouts.
