Country: United States of America Nampa is best known as Idaho’s third-most populous city and the largest in Canyon County. About 20 miles west of Boise along Interstate 84, it forms the Boise metropolitan area’s second principal city, with Meridian just 6 miles away. Students bring a youthful energy through the College of Western Idaho and Northwest Nazarene University, while the city’s name may trace back to a Shoshoni word meaning “foot” or “footprint.”
