The town of Balboa, founded by the United States during the construction of the Panama Canal, was named after Vasco Núñez de Balboa, the Spanish conquistador credited with discovering the Pacific Ocean. The name was suggested to the Canal Zone authorities by the Peruvian ambassador to Panama. Prior to being drained, filled and leveled by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the hilly area north of Panama City was home to a few subsistence ranches and unused marshlands.

The town of Balboa, like most towns in the Canal Zone, was served by Canal Zone Government operated schools, post office, police and fire stations, commissary, cafeteria, yacht club, service center, and recreational facilities. There are several schools in the area. The town is also home to several private banks, a credit union, a Jewish Welfare Board, several Christian denomination churches, civic clubs, a masonic temple, and a YMCA. Businesses continue to expand in this highly desirable area.

Formerly a part of the Canal Zone, Balboa is now part of Panama City's township of Ancon. Since its reincorporation into the Republic of Panama, part of Balboa has been developed to enhance the port's capacity and to adapt to private ownership of residences (previously owned by the U.S. Government/Canal Zone Government/Panama Canal Company, and rented to employees thereof) and some small companies and restaurants.

Sightseeing highlights include the Administration Building, Mi Pueblito Afroantillano, scenic overlook of Ancon Hill (from which can be seen a set of locks of the Canal), monument Homenaje a la Democracia, the Goethals Memorial, the Prado, handicraft markets, bed-and-breakfast hotels, and a country store and cafes near the Administration Building.
