    How do you feel about Spokane Transit?

    • @LifeinSpokane
      @LifeinSpokane Місяць тому

      The city of Spokane has invested heavily into its transit system. They have expanded routes and purchased several super long electric vehicles. While the transit system is very capable of getting people around the region, most people are accustomed to driving their own vehicles to get where they want to need to go.

    Spokane holds the record for the dumbest, unhealthiest, and out of shape people in the country. If you want to have to dumb yourself down just to communicate with the people then feel free to move to spokane.

    How do you think the air quality, high altitude, and distinct four season climate of the region overall would affect someone coming from Los Angeles? And does the city or metro area offer anything in the way of social services for lower income residents, such as affordable housing and public transportation?

    I moved to Spokane in 1972 and raised my kids there. We moved tk the Portland area 20 yrs ago but went bAckto Spokane over that time. What a change and not for the better. Yes many auto thefts and chop shops and home robberies. We went to a Ramada Hotel on Sullivan and while we were there, there was a murder in the parking lot. Pay good money for a hotel if visiting. This new Spokane Valley is nothing like before. But what do i know? We live 25 miles away from Portland where we have anarchy downtown burning buildings and shooting people. We want to get back to N. Idaho and Spokane Valley!!🤣🤗

    Having been in spokane for almost 20 years i am sad to say it is not a place you want to be unless you make over 100k a year. Property taxes have gone up about 300 dollars a month for the last 10 years. This year the city said it would be less then 10 dollars per year... Really. Spokane is also a place that is not friendly to retired folks believe me. Do an internet search for 'Camp Hope' to get just a taste of the homeless problem here. Spokane has a huge population of drug addicts from all the rehab places in town. These addicts get sent here with a 1 way bus ticket and after they leave rehab they stay and most go right back to drugs. It has made it a nightmare for those that aren't drug addicts that the only thing even a dentist will give you is aspirin. A friend was in an auto accident and had his leg amputated. when he was discharged he was told they don't prescribe pain medication and any over the counter meds should be enough. thank goodness thc has been legalized here. Also spokane is 20 minutes from the idaho border where the Neo-nazi hq is located. Often they come to spokane to work because wa min wage is over double of idaho. I am white and get a gun pointed at me no less then 3 times a year. I cant imagine how bad it is for people of color. Also spokane police are notorious for corruption. They openly break state laws with zero re-guard.

    One of my sons just moved there with his newly wed wife. He grew up in southern Oregon and went to UND for college. They said the gas tax is high that they go to Idaho to fill-up. Now you've told us the good. How about a video of telling us the bad and the ugly of living in Spokane WA! Almost all cities have homeless people. Reading others comment 200% high crime rate compared to national average and high auto theft rate really resulting high auto insurance premium?

    • @LifeinSpokane
      @LifeinSpokane 9 місяців тому

      Thanks for watching my video and for your comments, samfungccim. This video, my first produced about Spokane, was focused on all of the things to see and do here in Spokane that makes it special. If I did a "The Good and the Bad About Spokane" video, that might add another 5 minutes to what was already a lengthy video for most people's attention spans. If I did a video just about the negative aspects of Spokane, I would get just as many, if not more, comments from people about trashing Spokane. Can't win in this information age. Spokane is the second largest city in Washington state. Seattle is the largest. Seattle ranks #1 in crime per capita in Washington state; Spokane ranks #2. I just read this website that reports what are the top 10 most dangerous cities in Washington state: propertyclub.nyc/article/most-dangerous-cities-in-washington-state. Anyway, I don't care to argue about the crime topic. Perhaps in another video.

      Some years ago, I tried to listen to some Macklemore songs but when the first song started with him talking (and no doubt lying) about the size of his penis -- or was he talking about his pet chicken? -- I felt very embarrassed for the city of Seattle and I have never listened to anything by him since. But hopefully he has matured out of being big idiot.

    Don't eat at churchill's they will serve you a cold steak and the only place that will bring you a cold lobster . i have lived in spokane for over 50 years ,Spokane also has the 4 th highest auto theft in the country , And a crime rate 182% above the national rate , really bad homeless problem ,not safe to go downtown after dark and just elected a democrat for the new mayor , Other than that a great place to live bring the whole family !

      I don’t live In Spokane but my mom does still. I’m here right now visiting for Thanksgiving holiday. Totally agree of the problems here. I live in Phoenix Arizona area. Phoenix has its crime as it’s a big city. But for Spokane to have the crime size it is very bad. I used to live in Spokane, I was here 1993-2001. In 1993, 30 years ago now when we moved to Spokane, was not like this crime wise at all, had a small city feel. Other than it being winter now, one thing is the homes here in the city seem so old and run down. Where I live in Gilbert Arizona, the houses and neighborhoods look great compared to here. I was surprised to hear a democrat being elected mayor for Spokane but also progressive individuals for the city council considering that the city overall tends to be conservative. But as voters have shown, they felt Nadine Woodward has not been able to handle all the challenges happening in the city, wanted different direction.

Yes, crime and homelessness are up in Spokane...and in almost every mid-sized to large city in the U.S. Our state and national governments have not handled this difficult issue well.

      Thanks for watching my video and for your reply to the comments above. Gilbert, AZ is in a beautiful area where green is the color year round, not the 4 full seasons we experience here. I also just read that Gilbert has doubled in population every five years between 1980-2000, so many newer homes added to the lovely landscape. Spokane was incorporated in 1881 and during our springs, summers, and falls is, in my opinion, one of the most beautiful cities in America.

In 1980, population was about 5000, today population is 273,000. Spokane has about 229,000 in population. Gilbert has small but more vibrant downtown area and to this day more development is occurring there. Where I live i am close to two other suburbs of Phoenix, Mesa, AZ and Chandler, AZ.
