Idaho City is a city in and the county seat of Boise County, Idaho, United States,〔(【引用サイトリンク】accessdate=2011-06-07 )〕 located about northeast of Boise. The population was 485 at the 2010 census, up from 458 in 2000.
Idaho City is part of the Boise City−Nampa, Idaho Metropolitan Statistical Area.
==History==
Idaho City was founded in December 1862 as “Bannock” (sometimes given as “West Bannock”), amidst the Boise Basin gold rush during the Civil War, the largest since the California gold rush a dozen years earlier. Near the confluence of Elk and Mores Creeks, its plentiful water supply allowed it to outgrow the other nearby camps in the basin, such as Placerville, Pioneerville, and Centerville. As its population swelled, the new Idaho Territorial legislature changed the town’s name to “Idaho City,” to avoid confusion with Bannack, in present-day Beaverhead County, the southwestern corner of Montana.
At its peak during the mid-1860s, there were more than 200 businesses in town, including three dozen saloons and two dozen law offices. Its 1864 population of 7,000 made it the largest city in the Northwest, bigger than Portland. Wood was the prime source of both shelter and heat, which caused Idaho City to burn four times: 1865, 1867, 1868, and 1871.〔"Idaho for the Curious", by Cort Conley, ©1982, ISBN 0-9603566-3-0, p.172-179〕 Five businesses on Main Street burned again in the early hours of June 5, 2015.〔http://www.ktvb.com/story/news/local/2015/06/05/idaho-city-main-street-fire/28526653/〕
In 1863, St. Joseph’s Catholic Church was established; it was the first Catholic parish in the new Idaho Territory and the church was completed the following year.〔
Idaho City is an important location in local Masonic history. The Grand Lodge of Idaho was founded in Idaho City in 1867. Idaho Lodge No. 1 was originally located in Idaho City, but is now in Boise.
During the boom, the greater Boise Basin population numbered in the tens of thousands, but most departed the mountains once mining declined. Idaho City’s population fell below 900 by 1870 and was down to 104 by 1920. The modern economy relies mainly on hunting and fishing tourism, and visits to the many historic sites, including the Boot Hill Cemetery.〔http://www.ghosttowngallery.com/htme/idahocity.htm〕 Outside of town, the mining tailings of the era are ubiquitous.
Senator Frank Church announced his candidacy for the Democratic nomination for president from the porch of the county court house in Idaho City in March 1976. His grandfather had settled there in 1871 and his father was born there in 1889. Chase Clark, Church’s father-in-law, had announced his candidacy for governor in Idaho City in 1940.
