Spokane is truly Near Nature. Near Perfect. With a four-season climate, and its location situated between the Rocky and Cascade Mountain ranges, Spokane is protected from damp coastal weather like that of Seattle, as well as continental-type winters. Its location provides ample opportunities for recreation and sports, and cost of living and home prices are very reasonable, giving families the option to buy a home not possible in some other locations.
