## Colocation lease rates in Boise

DC Hub does not hold a lease-rate figure for this market yet.

Three operators—CenturyLink Boise, Fiberpipe, and DataSite—each manage single facilities in the market. The fragmented operator base reflects a nascent market where no single entity has consolidated regional control, contrasting with hyperscaler-dominated regions.

For site developers, this means new power will be obtainable but not frictionless; grid access require active coordination with Idaho Power and potential phased interconnection schedules.

No recent deals are tracked in Boise's registry, leaving operator dynamics opaque. The three single-facility operators show no consolidation activity, merger signals, or announced expansion. Without M&A flow or announced facility transactions, it is unclear whether capacity growth will emerge from existing operator investment or new entrant acquisition of sites.

Two data center proposals on federal land south of Boise and near Shoshone are under BLM evaluation, indicating pipeline interest despite the absence of recent transaction records. Mayor Lauren McLean's data center moratorium proposal adds regulatory uncertainty to the development timeline. Whether new supply materializes will depend on whether these federal land proposals advance and whether local policy frameworks stabilize around growth.
