Davenport is a small, friendly county seat in Lincoln County (pop. ~1,700) with deep agricultural roots and a tight‑knit community — a quiet, affordable base that’s pleasant to call home during multi‑week travel assignments.
You’re not stuck — Spokane is about 35–38 miles away for big‑city dining, arts, hospitals and an international airport, and Moses Lake (~64 miles) adds lake recreation and weekend outdoor options, so short drives open up plenty of off‑duty things to do.
