Living in Yakima, WA

Lewis and Clark explored central Washington in 1805 and established a Catholic mission in the Yakima Valley. Fort Simcoe was built to help navigate the battles between white settlers and native tribes during the Yakima Indian Wars. The city was officially incorporated in 1883 and established as a site along the Northern Pacific Railway Company. Yakima was moved four miles north of its original site to accommodate the railroad and agriculture-based economy. Farmers in the Yakima Valley grew a wide variety of crops in the semi-arid desert climate and sold them throughout central Washington.

Today, tourism is the largest contributor to the local economy. The city is a hub for outdoor recreation in the Northwest with many skiing, boating, horseback riding, and rafting opportunities. Residents in Yakima apartments enjoy an average of 300 days of sunshine every year that help the area produce hops for 75 percent of the beer manufactured in the United States.
