Review of Spokane, Washington


DON"T MOVE HERE
Star Rating - 2/20/2014
I moved here and started a business 4 years ago. I have had to spend more time trying to fix this community than I could on my business.
No matter how many nonprofits and community groups I have joined it
did not change the facts about Spokane. Spokane is poor and defeated,
miserable and hostile, trashy and unprofessional. Most of the people have adopted a culture of lazy, selfish, hostile, and violent behavior. Spokane is a Cesspool! Spokane is the real-deal ghetto. The whole place! I am desperately trying to liquidate everything here and move. I will be taking most of my staff with me. Not joking... It is that bad. Don’t make the same mistake I did. Spokane will turn your little-ones into convicts and your property into rubble...and the cops don't even show-up when you call 911 (can you believe that?!) DO YOUR REASEARCH. Don't buy into the positive image the city is trying to promote.

People who have standards end up moving. Spokane natives as a whole don't have any standards. Believe me, you are better off not moving to Washington State at all in this point in time. Just do your research on areavibes and neighborhood scout. Read reviews of the local businesses and the personal adventures of others before determining to move to Spokane. Really ask yourself hard questions. Really check out the neighborhoods and the policing. There are virtually no good neighborhoods or "policing" in Spokane.
