Spokane Valley, WA demographics: median age 38.3; 26.5% of adults 25+ hold a bachelor’s degree. Age, race, households, languages and education, ACS 2020–2024 with margins of error.

ACS 2020–2024 · Spokane Valley city, Washington · Incorporated city · GEOID 5367167. The survey estimates a population of 106,365 for its five-year window. This is separate from the annual July 2025 population estimate on the city overview.

Median age in Spokane Valley is 38.3 years, with a 90% margin of error of 1.1 years. There are 42,775 households (±1,065). Age and household distributions show how these totals are composed; they do not establish which neighborhood suits a particular person.

Every count and share is an estimate. “±” is a 90% margin of error (MOE); pp means percentage points. Derived shares use the category count divided by the named universe. Aggregated category MOEs and percentage MOEs are approximate. A margin larger than half its estimate is flagged as low precision. Blank source uncertainty is shown as unavailable, never zero.
