Review of Spokane, Washington


Great Place To Live
Star Rating - 3/4/2009
I moved to Spokane five years ago from Southern California. I love the four seasons and the friendly people. Winter is great for sledding, skiing and enjoying quiet nights with your family by the fire. Summer is amazing with many lakes and water activities nearby. There are many parks for outdoor activities and picnics. The medical community is exceptional and the schools are good.

This is a great place to raise a family and enjoy life.

Kathryn, I appreciate your opinion here. I also live in S. CAl (although in the HOT desert) how did you adjust to no ocean? is there enough lakes and water to satisfy an ocean and water lover? and good for families? I am confused about the amount of snow, different ratings.
