Yakima
offers an enviable quality of life, with affordable housing in a rural
setting, to Yakima's 250,000 residents. The cities of Yakima and nearby
Union Gap serve as a business and commercial hub, with local businesses
supported by visitors from throughout Central Washington. Yet large urban
centers are just hours away for an occasional taste of a faster pace of
life - Seattle is a 2 1/2 hour drive, with Spokane and Portland just 3
hours away.
An
active community supports the arts and special interest groups. Those
interested in getting involved in their community will be pleased by the
wealth of civic organizations which band together to improve life for
all the citizen's of the Yakima Valley. The valley's educational institutions
offer extensive formal educational opportunities in support of business,
career goals, and personal development.
