Wenatchee: What's the Local Buzz?

I received the following question via e-mail yesterday from a prospective investor client:
Question:
Can you tell me what the local buzz is as far as the local economy & home appreciation?  I have the hard census data and I have read your blog posts.  I'm looking for what people are excited about these days in Wenatchee?



Carol's Answer:

The local buzz?  The riverfront development is high on the buzz scale.  
   The Columbia River and inexpensive hydro power is really what is driving our economy these days.   
   The hydro power is far reaching in it's effect on the economy... from residential to agricultural, commercial and industrial.   
    We have baby boomers flocking here with their retirement checks, seeking our 300 days of sunshine

    We have Seattleites flocking here on the week-end seeking the same sun... and a plethora of recreational opportunities
    Our snow ski hill, Mission Ridge, is just 12 miles from town 
    Lots of new wineries popping up
    Tourism is big here.

Nice blog Carol. I love Wenatchee . Every year our family used to do a trip to Mission Ridge for a few days. Now my wife and I live in the Phoenix area. We would love to have a summer place up there some day. I had no idea that Wenatchee had over 300 days of sunshine a year.

Hi Barry, Thanks for stopping by the blog. I find anyone who has spent time in Wenatchee loves it. Any wonder so many people are flocking here? Come on back for a visit sometime.
