Latah, WA

Latah is a small, quiet farming town in southern Spokane County, set right along Highway 27 about forty miles south of Spokane. The community grew up along Latah Creek in the late 1800s, and today it remains surrounded by rolling wheat fields and open country. It is the kind of place where traffic is virtually nonexistent and the rhythm of the day is shaped by the seasons.

With under two hundred residents, Latah offers a tight-knit neighborhood feel where people know their neighbors and enjoy plenty of space to themselves. Most everyday errands, shopping, and dining mean taking a quick drive to nearby towns like Fairfield or heading north into the city. For people looking to escape suburban bustle and settle into true rural living, Latah provides quiet streets and a classic Palouse setting.
