Tickets for Nampa

Nampa is the largest city in Canyon County, Idaho, and the second largest in the state. As of the 2007 census, the population was around 86,000, having grown very quickly in recent years. It is one of the fastest-growing cities in Idaho. Nampa is located about 20 miles west of Boise along Interstate 84. The city is considered part of the Boise metropolitan area. The belief that how Nampa got its name is that it came from a Native American word for moccasin. Native Americans stuffed their moccasins with sagebrush to keep warm, making a larger footprint. There is also a Nampa in Alberta, Canada.
