Tri-Cities Wiki

The most common posts on our sub are always looking for something. New comers want to know where the locals go. The locals are still stuck in the time bubble that keeps the Tri-Cities, forever frozen in the memory of when they first moved here, thinking there is nothing to do. There is a common misconception that "we don't get the good stuff because we are so small" and I have made it a personal mission to bring a spotlight to all of what the area has to offer!

Since I started event posting a few years ago, I've amassed quite a database of offerings. This year, I've been working on building the sub's Wiki, and there's finally enough finished that I think it's ready to pin. What I was aiming for was a Reddit style link aggregator that is useful and comprehensive.

Do you need to find a park? A Date-night idea? Kids activity or a hiking trail? Are you looking for a mediterranean market, a local club or where to vote? Want to know where to take visitors other than the mall, or where to start when you find yourself heading here for a sports tournament? It's probably in there.

I've tried to build this more like a local reference guide than a list of random links, and there's a LOT in it already. Things to Do, Food & Drink, Outdoors, Family, Arts & Culture, Sports & Recreation, Local Life, local resources and services, and a bunch more. Anyone can find the chain retailers, which our cars automatically find themselves driving to.

It's still a work in progress, because I just keep finding more categories to add. If you find something that's missing, outdated, closed, wrong, or just think something belongs in there, tell me. Local knowledge is exactly what will make this thing better. Please let me know of anything to add or broken/dead links.

Moving/New Here 👋🏼 I have agoraphobia and it's been difficult to meet others since moving here, am looking to find those maybe who browse the subreddit who'd be interested in making a new friend?

14 Upvotes

Hi! i have posted a few times before and trying again! I recently moved to tri cities (richland) from new england last november and I'm seeking new connections and ideally friends. I have checked out a bunch of local events and groups but nothing has really stuck out so as far as opportunities to meet people. So here I am seeing if maybe anyone interested in talking who are open to new friends?

I have a bit of agoraphobia so its difficult to leave the apartment at the moment and im working on that currently but hoping to at least have a virtual friend thats local, and work up to meeting in person. I'm in therapy about it and overall I'd say I've got a good head on my shoulders. It's been challenging meeting people when it's hard for you to go outside though.

About me

I'm 34M, and I have quite a few interests. I'm into spiritual stuff like reiki (im a reiki practitioner), tarot, crystals, astrology and yoga. Some hobbies include longboarding, bowling, skiing, playing the ocarina, and gaming to name a few. I just completed building my third gaming PC and would hope to meet people to also game with! I'm also into watching NFL (go Jets...sadly lol) but I definitely am supporting Darnold (maybe Lock now?) and the Seahawks right now.

I enjoy deep conversations about STEM, the occult/spiritual stuff, existentialism and psychology. I'm quite a nerd and hoping someone can match that energy. I also enjoy traveling, I've lived in Australia and New Zealand and planning to make a trip out there soon!

I'm not really one to meet others on apps, have looked into meetup and some facebook and discord groups. and it didnt really resonate with me. Already have looked into TAG (tri cities area gaming) and the tri cities discord groups, and introduced myself there and nothing much happened out of it. hoping to make it to an event when i can leave the house, maybe practice some DnD (have never played but want to learn!)

I'm interested in making connections and seeing if there is a good vibe. Only looking to talk/meet those who are 21+. if interested feel free to send a chat with an introduction, just include your age and a bit about yourself to see if its a good fit.

Looking forward to talking and I'm really happy to be here in Tri cities! any suggestions on ways to meet up and/or virtually appreciated too! I feel like i have tried everything.

Need Help With ‼️ Costco or Winco or both?

15 Upvotes

I am pretty new here, and I moved from a place with no WINCO. I was wondering if a Costco membership is worth it here, or does Winco have similar discounts and items?

I am a single person household, so not much to buy. But I used to buy paper towels, frozen items and stuff from Costco.

Local Eats & Drinks 🍔 Perch Chef Wins HBA Best Chef Title?

34 Upvotes

The Home Builders Association of Tri-Cities named Perch Chef “2026 Best Chef on Parade.” I’m guessing the food presented for the judges wasn’t from the Perch menu. I’ve been a few times to verify it wasn’t a fluke, but the food there is absolutely terrible. I can count on one hand how many times I’ve spit food out, and Perch is on that hand. Drinks and ambience, top notch! Food is… awful. I take that back; the brussel sprouts nachos are yummy.

Need Help With ‼️ Would anyone like to have the sweetest cat in the world in their home?

74 Upvotes

I cant afford to responsibly keep her at this time, and im moving to a place that doesn't allow pets.

Shes about a year old, and fixed. Shes the most affectionate cat youll ever meet, and shes very smart, and well behaved save the fact thats she is horrendously gluttonous, so protect your food or be willing to share.

She will want be able to sleep with you every night, and she'll respect your sleep. She'll stay asleep with until you until you wake up at witch point she will demand cuddles.

Her favorite way to play is playing fetch, preferably with a skinny straw or a hair tie. Shes good at keeping herself occupied but will be delighted when you come home.

Garenteed to make your life happier. Anyone willing to take in my little baby?

Local Politics 🇺🇸 Pasco Police Budget Adjusted for Inflation and Population 2015-2025

gallery

23 Upvotes

There has been a lot of local discussion about the City of Pasco budget. There is apparently a large shortfall - lots of blame going around etc etc. One of the plans has called for cutting police and fire budgets, which has made people unhappy.

I did a brief analysis looking at the police budget over time, adjusted it for 2026 dollars, and also made it per resident. Bottom line, the budget has increased even accounting for those adjustments. Note, this is just the police, not fire/EMS. Also, I had trouble finding a clear complete 2026 amended budget, so just left it at 2025 spent.

As far as I can tell the "cuts" they are talking about would be essentially maintaining the amount of money to be very similar, but job cuts would have to be made due to increasing wages, cost of benefits, inflation etc.

Need Help With ‼️ Hispanic Workforce Job Openings ?

0 Upvotes

I’ve worked since my early teen years and just recently moved back to the Tri-Cities from my hometown and have yet to find a business or job that truly exemplifies what it means to be apart of such a wonderful community. With that said, as a Hispanic bilingual and biliterate employee, I have personally been only working for non-colored people that unfortunately do not see my potential to the fullest. Tri-Cities is definitely growing and a lot of the people moving here are Hispanic (especially Pasco area) or with some sort of background. We are not the same city we used to be 20yrs ago and I love it & I have seen that the TikTok community is shining light on some businesses and giving them attention, yet I’m not sure if being a content creator in order to be apart of something suits me at this time.
- I’m honestly just trying to say that as a Mexican-American that would spend half of their childhood in Mexico and here in WA, I still experience discrimination in the workforce since there’s still a lot that I’m unsure of (language, mannerisms, etc.)
I’m sure there are amazing bosses somewhere but I just have yet to meet one! 😅 I am currently in the legal reception field but am looking to expand and help my people out more by actively being part of something exciting! Any recommendations or advice would be amazing!

Need Help With ‼️ Good tech repair?

Anyone know of a good tech repair place that does robot vacuums? I have a robo-vac that needs a part replaced, and I even have the part, but I don't have the tools or the know how. Even if it's a little out of the area like Walla Walla or Spokane to either drive or ship it too. I just need the thing fixed and can't find anything useful on google.

Moving/New Here 👋🏼 Title: Anyone here work at Kadlec as a nurse?

3 Upvotes

I'm a RN considering transitioning into acute care, and I'm interested in the ER at Kadlec in particular.

I'd love to hear from current or former employees about their experience. How is the work environment, especially for nurses who are new to the ER? Are the preceptors supportive, and how is management?

I'm okay with a challenging learning curve and working nights, but having a supportive team is really important to me.

Would you recommend working there? Feel free to message me privately if you'd rather not comment. Thanks!
