Star is growing fast. If you're in a new home, it's a good time to think about backup power before landscaping and patios fill in the side yard.

Star, Ada and Canyon counties
New construction now, rural wells next door.
In a newer Star home, there's often open space beside the house and a modern electrical panel, which can make planning simpler. Finished landscaping and fences can make placement harder later on.
On the older acreage around Star, homes are more likely to be on a private well and propane. Backup power there usually starts with the well pump and heat.
