Studio Apartments for Rent in Cheney, WA

Cheney in eastern Washington blends college town activity with access to Spokane County's wilderness. Home to Eastern Washington University, it draws both students and long-term residents who want a small-town setting with direct access to Interstate 90 and major hiking trails through the rocky Channeled Scablands. Housing ranges from historic Victorian and National homes off First Street to midcentury ranch-style houses, Colonial Revivals and bi-levels built in the 1950s to 1970s. New Traditional homes from the 1990s onward sit in suburban subdivisions, while custom estates and historic farmhouses on acreage are available on the city's outskirts. Cheney School District serves local kids, and Cheney High School connects students to Eastern Washington University through the “EWU in the High School” program, where teens can earn college credit at no cost. For everyday things to do, residents use Sutton Park’s playgrounds and walking paths and head to the Columbia Plateau State Park Trail for cycling, hiking and cross-country skiing. Turnbull National Wildlife Refuge and Fish Lake Regional Park are close by. First and Second Streets are home to small businesses and restaurants, including cafes, brunch spots, Mexican eateries, pizza parlors and pubs with trivia and karaoke. State Route 904 links to I-90 for a roughly 25-minute drive to downtown Spokane, with Fairchild Air Force Base and Spokane International Airport about 20 minutes away. Spokane Transit Authority buses offer local and commuter service.
