Good for her...EXCEPT, lower wages AND state income tax! She might want to look at those things before taking the plunge. What’s her motivation?
My daughter opted for Spokane Valley because of the zero income tax. Her boyfriend’s mom and dad live in Post Falls and we are north of CdA, so lots of pull to Idaho.
She’s just starting out — husband is the maintenance guy at the apartments. Has two toddlers and I believe she is thinking public schools might be better over there. They really aren’t bad in Eastern WA, but bits of liberalism have crept in.
