KUNA

Welcome to Kuna

Kuna is a fast-growing community offering affordable homes in a great location. Recent years have seen the population of this small farming town grow to almost 20,000 from just 5,382 in 2000. This accelerated development has brought many new businesses and amenities. Kuna still stays close to agricultural roots, and this peaceful town is surrounded by beautiful open countryside. Many of Kuna’s newer developments are bordered by farmland. Kuna is just 15 minutes’ drive from Meridian and similarly close to the Falcon Crest Golf Club and several scenic natural recreation areas. The Indian Creek flows through the heart of town, offering recreation on the water and along the adjacent paths of the Kuna Greenbelt.
