There is plenty to do and the summer climate is particularly pleasant and fresh. Downtown is clean and vibrant. Most residential and commercial areas spread into the relatively flat landscape to the north. Spokane to the west is close enough to provide amenities and services plus employment for those who need it. But there is plenty to do locally, with numerous recreation, entertainment and minor arts amenities. The local construction boom, tourism, and some light commercial activity round out a healthy economic climate. Nearby Spokane, WA has a mild climate all 4 seasons, therefore has opportunities for year-round outdoor activities. For summer time, there is water skiing, camping, white water rafting or sitting by the lake. For winter, there are 5 snow skiing resorts within 2 hours of downtown. There are numerous great restaurants and a variety of cultural events that come to town each month. There are 3 major universities that serve our area, plus a great public and private school system.
