My company has a job opening for what it referred to as our "Spokane WA" location but it is actually in Post Falls that I am interested in. Just curious about climate, activities, gun laws, rent prices, and so forth.

Currently I live near Asheville NC, so I'm in the mountains, we do get some snow a year, and we do often have weeks of temps in the teens at a time, but generally it's pretty mild in the winter and can get pretty hot in the summer. 80s and 90s with really high humidity.

Again, mountains, so I assume there is plenty of hiking, biking, fishing, hunting etc, but what about family parks, eateries, etc.

I have NC CCP and several NFA items. Bring with, or needs to stay? don't know how long I will live there so no sure about if I will officially change my residence to ID or not.

Rent. what can I expect to pay for a 2-3 bedroom apt/condo/townhouse or house? No intentions of living there permanently so renting would be best for me.

also, would I be better off living in WA or ID since I'd be right near the border?

asking this in the ID HTF as well, thanks.

Couer d' Alene, Post Falls, Rathdrum > Spokane

Idaho is far more NFA friendly than WA, too. No SBR or FA in WA.

Idaho has better hunting.

Spokane is just a short drive away for any reason you might need to go there.

If I lived/worked in the greater Spokane-Couer d' Alene area the decision to live in Idaho would be no brainer for me.

I've lived in Spokane coming up on 17 years.  Spokane is big enough there is always something to do if you want, but with out some of the big city problems.  Yes, we have crime (meth, pot, petty theft, etc) but its a fairly lovable city. Most consider post falls, CDA, and Spokane to be one large metro/suburban area.






























 

Idaho.

The only real benefit to Spokane is no State Income tax.

If you hunt/Fish ,  Idaho is also the way to go as their out of state license fees are outrageous Idaho is where the better hunting is esp Elk, Also some awesome fly fishing.

I applied for the job and am supposed to have interviews set up later this week. Hopefully they will fly me out to the area to interview so I get an idea of what I'm getting myself into. Too early to count any chickens, but I'm staying positive about it.

How far is the nearest full 1/4 mile drag strip to post falls/couer d'alene?



That's a deal maker for me.

you know, you can train a monkey to drive a straight line...... just sayin

Probably closer than you are to one now: 32 miles.

Even closer if, as long time Spokanites might recall, you count Riverside Avenue.

$1000.00 dollars cash in an envelope. First Test 'N tune in March, Pacific Raceways. Bracket race, dials on window. Me and you.



We give the envelopes to the starter. The winner returns to the starting line and winner takes all.
Option 2: Heads up race, run what ya brung, proof of personal ownership for vehicle used not required. $5000.00 cash.
 

You're right. 154 miles round trip from my driveway now. I never miss a race. Ever.





 

slow your roll man, it was a joke.

besides, If I move 2500 miles the only car coming with me will be my Tundra, would likely sell the wifes Malibu (even though we love it) and leave the toys behind in my parents garage.

Claims was only joking when shit gets real.  Check.



Runs mouth then backs out when cash is needed to back mouth up.  Check.



Uses parents Garage as storage unit. Check.



Uses Tundra to drop wife off at bus stop.  Check.




 

If I could choose where my whole family would live, I would choose Idaho.

then I'll go back to my previous claim, a trained monkey can drive a straight line. call me when you learn how to use your steering wheel.

A monkey smart enough to drag race competitively could probably afford 2 cars and not need his parents garage....just sayin





 

you're a Mustang driver aren't you.

If you find yourself in a hole....

I think he's offline right now trying to rent borrow an excavator.
