Many residents consider Spokane an ideal place to
raise a family. Quiet neighborhoods, tree-lined boulevards and
year-round recreation provide a quality of life that is
unmatched. Spokane is also recognized as the financial and
economic hub of the Inland Northwest. From 1984 to 1993,
employment growth, home prices and sales, construction spending,
population, household income levels, payrolls and revenues to
city and county governments hit new levels. As a county seat,
Spokane serves as a hub for business, retail and financial
services, and is the major health care provider to a 36-county
region encompassing parts of Montana, Oregon, Idaho, British
Columbia, Alberta, as well as Washington. This Inland Northwest
region expands across 80,000 square miles and is home to nearly
two million residents who live, work and enjoy this recreational
paradise.
