Ditto: Spokane is absolutely the worst community I have lived in during my 65 years (and I lived all over the US). Very unsociable people lacking the most basic of social skills, a noticeably dishonest business community where buyer beware is the standard and un-professsional practices are the norm, a healthcare community that is profit-driven, and a city government that is the most dysfunctional I've ever encountered. Crime, especially property, is widespread while policing is almost non-existent, as is road maintenance, while everyone here seems accepting of the City and County lack of providing even basic services. Finally, the City's contemporary nicknames are all apt: Spocant, Spokanistan, and The Land That Honesty [and Time] Forgot. And yes, I remain somewhat baffled by how a community situated within so much natural beauty cab be so comparatively ugly when it comes to the human side? Gratefully moving this year after two-and-a-half years, and would have done so after only a few months could I have afforded it following the worst relocation decision I have made in my life. Caveat emptor !
