The Urban Area feature class contains polygon boundaries for 26 cities across Idaho that supports urban planning. To be considered an urban area the city needs at least 5,000 people or 2,000 housing units. Each feature includes demographic attributes such as population, number of household units, and population density.

Urban areas are typically implemented as Urban Growth Boundaries (UGBs), a planning tool used to contain urban sprawl by restricting development outside the defined area. UGBs promote efficient land use by encouraging compact, high-density development within the boundary and preserving open spaces and agricultural lands beyond it.
Data was processed, validated, and integrated using industry-standard software and quality control methods.
