Situated on the eastern side of Washington’s Cascade Mountain Range, Spokane features a four-season climate, abundant opportunities for outdoor recreation, an international airport and a tax-friendly environment for senior citizens. Thanks to no personal income tax Spokane seniors don’t pay tax on their retirement income, including Social Security payments. Spokane offers the cultural amenities that can be expected in a mid-sized city of approximately 300,000 citizens, with a good arts scene, live theater and museums.
