Spokane’s Best Neighborhoods ranked and rated with pictures, maps, and descriptions.

Written by a homegrown urban planner, SpokanePlanner delivers a unique perspective you won’t find from garden variety relocation guides.

Spokane provides a diversity of neighborhood products — from hipster to family friendly and everything in between — at price points far more affordable than our coastal neighbors.

If you’re moving to Spokane, you’ll find different quality of life characteristics for each neighborhood. It is the abundance or absence of such characteristics that set the metrics for SpokanePlanner’s list of Spokane’s Best Neighborhoods.

The best part about SpokanePlanner’s neighborhood rankings is you’re getting an honest perspective from a homegrown urban planning expert. Unlike sanitized neighborhood rankings you’ll find on websites like the chamber of commerce or the City of Spokane whereby an equitable perspective must prevail (i.e., every neighborhood is treated with the same fluffy language), SpokanePlanner’s neighborhood rankings are not saddled by the urge to please everybody.

The neighborhood rankings that follow are your best source of where to live in Spokane, Washington.
