Living in Moses Lake, WA

Before missionaries came into the area, the areas around Moses Lake were mostly occupied by Kowalchina and Sinkiuse Native Americans. The chief of one of the tribes was given the name Moses, hence the city's name nearly 100 years later when a small group of pioneers moved into the area in 1910 and settled on the shores of the lake. Today, the city has grown into one of the most diverse and dynamic cities in central Washington due to its centralized location, low cost of living, excellent schools and crime rate, and quaint small-town atmosphere.

Moses Lake Attractions and Special Events

One of the events that brings great pride to the community is the Moses Lake Spring Festival. Because the climate of the Pacific Northwest can be quite cold during the winter months, many residents strived to create an event to enjoy the warm weather that returns in the spring. Citizens here enjoy four days of live musical entertainment, a 3-on-3 basketball tournament, 5K and 10K runs, a carnival, and a moonlight parade.
