Where pastoral land meets Pasco
Surrounded by the city of Pasco and its suburbs, West Pasco offers a unique combination of densely populated residential areas and vast patches of farmland. When walking West Pasco’s streets, it’s entirely possible to pass by a gym, a farmer’s market, a saddle club and a dozen houses all within the same block. Though West Pasco may have experienced its first housing boom during World War II, its growth has never stopped, and houses with Craftsman and custom-built aesthetics add fresh variety and options to this expanding inventory.
Homes with history in West Pasco
One might never know it from West Pasco’s quiet, semi-rural atmosphere, but this neighborhood traces its origins to the Manhattan Project of World War II. The Hanford Nuclear Reservation’s federal workers were accommodated with ranch-style residences that are still on West Pasco’s ever-evolving housing market. These 1940s homes now sit beside postwar Cape Cod houses and custom-builds put up as recently as 2021. Both midcentury-built residences and brand-new townhomes fill out the lower end of the market, costing between $300,000 and $600,000, while newer custom builds can fetch between $620,000 and $1.25 million.
Rows of ranch, bungalow, newly built, and custom homes can be seen in West Pasco.
Most of West Pasco is spacious and relaxed.

Hitting the links and baseballs in West Pasco
West Pasco has a distinctly green character to it; large patches of farmland are interspersed among this community’s residential areas, and Chiawana Park preserves 127 acres of riverfront green space for public use. This park includes a boat launch for those who wish to explore the Columbia River, while families can picnic, take their kids to the playground or play horseshoes or volleyball. West Pasco is also the epicenter of Franklin County's athletics. Abby Hedges, the Visitor Services Specialist with Visit Tri-Cities, says, "Gesa Stadium is a big draw, because it hosts our Dust Devils baseball team. There are also a lot of sporting fields in that area where soccer tournaments are held." Just a few blocks north of West Pasco, and next to Gesa Stadium, the Pasco Sporting Complex invites baseballers to play on one of their six fields. Pasco Golfland, which sits between West Pasco and the airport, offers its par-3, 9-hole course to members of the public for competitive prices.
Farm-fresh groceries
The Columbia Basin’s fertile soil has imbued West Pasco with a rich heritage of winemaking and farming. The Local Pumpkin organic food store sells farm-fresh produce, while the Angel Brook Farm Produce Stand offers everything from cherries and berries to handcrafted ice cream and Christmas trees. Shoppers can travel 2 miles up Road 68 to pick up groceries from the nearest Walmart Supercenter or the nearby Yoke’s Fresh Market. West Pasco doesn't have a large dining scene, but local restaurants like Magill's Restaurant, which serves down-home American fare within an Alpine-style building, bring out the area's culinary creativity.

Travel by car, bus and plane
West Pasco’s proximity to an interstate highway and the regional airport facilitates intrastate and interstate travel, though the Seattle Post-Intelligencer notes that the airport makes Pasco the noisiest of the Tri-Cities. Interstate 182 lets West Pasco residents access downtown Pasco and its medical center within a 6-mile drive, while downtown Kennewick is the same distance away via the Blue Bridge. Local bus routes like the 225 bus provide access to the airport, Kennewick and many other locations within the Tri-Cities region.
