Obviously different where you are. Benton, Franklin, Walla Walla, Yakima, Grant, and Chelan have large Hispanic populations and small business owners.

But that is not eastern WA, is it? That is central WA, and it does have a big Hispanic community. Spokane has 6%. Proportion wise, that’s not a big, vibrant Hispanic community.

Everything east of the cascades is eastern Washington. And in relation to the population in those areas, yes it is. I think Yakima is 50%.

Spokane is not Yakima though. It might be east of the cascades, but it’s not eastern Wa, it’s central. Everything about the two regions is different. This is how I think of Wa state regions, sorry I don’t know how to add pics. It is a map about CoVid opening, but if you Google a map of Wa state regions, you will get the same thing. Even the universities are called Central WA, they are not eastern Wa in the center of the state

Oh lord. As far as the person posting the question, its all eastern Washington. Subgroupings are irrelevant to the context of the question.

He says in his posting he has seen West/ central and he is looking at eastern WA. We apparently have different interpretations of eastern WA. You consider everything East of the cascades eastern WA. I don’t - I consider Ritzville Davenport and East of Ritzville Davenport on i90 eastern Wa. 🤷🏻‍♀️
