Airway Heights
A small city west of Spokane along US-2 — Fairchild Air Force Base, the Northern Quest Casino, and one of the fastest-growing residential markets in Spokane County.
Airway Heights is a small city in west Spokane County, Washington, sitting along the US-2 corridor between Spokane and Fairchild Air Force Base. It is one of the fastest-growing residential markets in Spokane County — driven by base proximity, Northern Quest Resort & Casino employment, and a steady supply of newer construction at price points below Spokane proper. Median home sales typically run $375K to $575K.
Full neighborhood guide forthcoming. The housing stock skews predominantly to 2000s–present new construction on regular suburban plats. Buyers come for base proximity, accessible new-construction pricing, Cheney School District alignment, and quick connections to both Spokane and the airport. The trade-offs are West Plains weather (windier and a few degrees colder than Spokane proper), Fairchild flight noise, and the limited mature-tree character common to recently developed areas.
