</div></div>Let's not forget our neighbors on the western side of the state line. Further<br>
down the slide show listed above is recognition for Pullman, WA, too.<br>
<br>
Best place to raise kids in Washington: Pullman<br>
Nearby city: Moscow, Idaho<br>
Population: 24,335<br>
Median family income: $57,474<br>
Runner-up: West Richland<br>
<br>
Pullman is in the southeastern part of Washington state on the Idaho border, a<br>
farming community in an area known as the Palouse. The Palouse wheat fields<br>
stretch for miles, broken up only by such geographic marvels as the Snake<br>
River, Hells Canyon, and the Cascade mountain range. In addition to its<br>
natural beauty, Pullman is a seat of learning and home to Washington State<br>
University. Pullman High School is highly regarded, and its WASL scores<br>
average among the highest in the state.<br>
