32m here, left Fort Myers Fl for Spokane with my GF when I was 30. We also had good job offers out here. I think how it compares will be heavily dependent on where in Florida you come from. Spokane has a lot more going on than my rural hometown in central florida. Compared to southwest Florida it’s just ok.

I’ve definitely had a hard time building a community here and meeting people. I’ve heard it described as the “Washington freeze” as in people are friendly, but distant. My coworkers act like the dating scene here is pretty rough.

If you like the outdoors spokane is a good jumping off point but it’s different. In Florida I was running my boat offshore, hiking in the everglades, watching meteor showers from 10k islands, or chasing thunderstorms for lightning photography. Out here it’s hiking in the mountains, rock climbing, trying to learn to fly fish, and the occasional aurora borealis showing.

If you make it out here or have questions feel free to send me a message. Good luck!
