About the Area
The city of Spokane is home to more than 195,000 residents. In all, there are nearly 500,000 residents in the metropolitan area. Spokane is located in the heart of the Inland Northwest and serves as a shopping, entertainment and medical hub for an area that includes eastern Washington, eastern Oregon, northern Idaho, western Montana, and southern portions of Alberta and British Columbia. The Spokane River runs through the city, with dramatic falls in west downtown.

Spokane hosted the first environmentally themed World’s Fair, Expo 1974, becoming the then-smallest city to ever host a World’s Fair. This event transformed Spokane’s downtown by reinventing the urban core. Many of the structures built for the World’s Fair are still in use. The United States Pavilion sits next to an IMAX theater, and the Washington State Pavilion became the INB Performing Arts Center. The Expo site itself became the 100-acre Riverfront Park.

Spokane has a well-developed public and private school system and is home to many higher education institutions, including private universities Gonzaga and Whitworth. Spokane is also an outdoor-lover’s paradise, with downhill and cross-country skiing, whitewater rafting, camping areas, hiking trails, numerous lakes and the Centennial Trail all located close by.
