Kennewick has warm summers with little humidity and cold winters. The area receives an average of eight inches of rainfall annually, compared to Washington’s 38 inches, and an average snowfall of four inches per year. Local retirees can benefit from health care costs well below the national median, some of the most affordable senior care in the state, and amenity-packed outdoor recreation spaces, such as 400-acre Columbia Park.
