It's great if you live in base. Boise is a cool area, especially if you're a young FO (college town).

You originally asked why new hires don’t want it. How many new hires do you think just randomly live in Boise or plan to live in Boise just became they’re assigned it? That’s why you received a few answers in regards to the issues with its commute.

Any base you choose is great when you don’t have to commute.
