Western Pasco has nice, new, inexpensive homes. 3br/2 car is usually 120-140K. Rd. 68 is a flourishing bussiness center, also in Pasco, near all the new homes. Richland is more quiet, nice homes especially Meadow Springs in the South. Kennewick is the largest by a little, has the mall and most of the best shopping, as well as new homes. Kennewick would probably be the best area for bussiness. Finley is a small, farming community outside of Kennewick. Lots of Recreation, huge park on the river, Columbia Park, also Howard Amon Park good for biking, fishing and dog walking. Camping and hiking are probably more interesting in the mountains. 2 mountain ranges (Blue and Cascade) each about 2 hours away. Lots of wineries in the area. Almost 1,000 I believe. Honestly the winters are not mellow, but not too bad either, occasional light snow, cold, fog. The summers are hot and dry. The river and public pools are there to cool you off. BUT WE ARE IN A DESERT. Ironically we are The Evergreen State, even though about 1/3 of the state is desert. Therefore brown is everywhere. Population is about 230,000 metro (Pasco, Kennewick, Richland, West Richland, West Pasco*, Burbank*, Finley*, Badger Canyon*, and Benton City) Not much tourism here, ever.
*Not a city, part of county
