Spokane's South Hill, Browne's Addition, and Manito neighborhoods have dense housing stock from the 1910s–1940s actively renovated by healthcare and tech workers who have relocated from Western Washington for cost reasons. Continental climate (unlike Seattle's maritime) means genuine winters and hot, dry summers, HVAC, insulation, and window upgrades drive higher renovation ROI here than in most Washington cities. Labor costs are roughly 35% below Seattle metro.
