Review of Spokane, Washington


How diverse is the Spokan area?
Star Rating - 11/18/2006
I am interested to know your experience if you have lived in the Bay area and non-white and currently living in the Spokan/C'dArlene area. I visited the place this past weekend as a possible relocation spot. It seemed very cold. Much appreciated for your comment. I would like to know how much diverse is really in this area or is it 99% white. Would you live in the Idaho side?

What difference does it make how diverse some place is? Aren't we the human race (just one race) anyway? You should focus more on culture and actions than color. For instance, is Spokane an area where you will get carjacked or mugged? Are there areas where you couldn't walk at night w/o police protection? Are taxes low? Is the school system good? These are the questions you should be asking. Not every color or ethnic group or extended family is going to ship their relatives to all 50 states just to please your ridiculous sense of diversity. Let people live where they want without complaining that there's "too many" of one kind of human in that area, which is exactly what diversity does when you think about it.
