Suncrest is a small unincorporated community in Stevens County, Washington, United States, about 9.7 miles northwest of the city of Spokane, of which it is a suburb. The community has experienced rapid growth during the 2000s; new "gated community" style development has focused on large lot size, small community, and proximity to the area's rural recreational opportunities.[1]

Location

Houses are located along the eastern shore of Long Lake,[2] appros 9.7 miles northwest of Spokane and about 5 miles northwest of central Nine Mile Falls, the next nearest population center. The main road through Suncrest is State Highway 291.

Commerce

Suncrest is a commercial center for nearby rural residents. The community includes the Suncrest Shopping Center, Suncrest Outpost and a medical and dental center.[1][3] Growth has been very rapid during the years of 2009-2010, with over 20 new businesses opened in the community during that period.[4]

Public services

Suncrest is served by the Nine Mile Falls School District, with three public schools located in the community:

  • Lake Spokane Elementary
  • Lakeside Middle School
  • Lakeside High School

The Stevens County Fire District has also centered a fire/EMS station in the community.[5] This is the location of the district's quarterly blood drives.[6][7]

The Stevens County Rural Library District has been a part of Suncrest since 1996{{Citation needed|date=October 2010}}. The Lakeside branch, located in Suncrest, is one of the District's larger branches{{Citation needed|date=October 2010}}. Services of SCRLD include books, movies, CDs and tapes, free Internet access, printing and copying, etc. As such, the library provides a vital resource for a wide range of users, including farmers, loggers, homeschool parents and distance education students, who view the library as "their community hub, their reference source, their connection to the Internet, their bus stop, their office, their living room even."[8]

Recreation

This area is popular with equestrians, with many back trails for horses and bicycles. In addition, the proximity of the community to Long Lake makes it a popular for various types of water sports, including boating and fishing.[9] Some planned developments in the area offer residents free membership in one of the community's private recreational clubs.[1][10]
