Why Quincy Is Growing: Fast Facts and Figures
🚀Population Growth
Quincy’s population has grown by nearly 15% since 2020, reaching an estimated 8,770 residents in 2025. That growth is fueled by a combination of affordable living, strong infrastructure, and expanding employment opportunities—especially in the tech and energy sectors.
💡A New Kind of Rural Tech Hub
While Quincy continues to thrive in agriculture—remaining a top producer of potatoes, apples, and cherries—it’s also home to 29 data centers and counting, including major facilities run by Microsoft and Vantage. These centers are powered by renewable hydropower, making Quincy a national example of sustainable tech infrastructure in a rural setting.
📈 Revenue and Infrastructure Growth
Over the past two decades, Quincy’s property tax revenue has increased by more than 1,960%. That’s not a typo. This incredible growth has directly funded major investments in public services, including:
The new $45 million Quincy Valley Medical Center, opened in 2025
The upcoming Q-Plex, a 143,000 sq. ft. indoor athletic and events complex
New schools and a fully staffed police department—something the city had never achieved until now
Cost of Living and Quality of Life
One of the biggest reasons people are choosing Quincy is the cost of living. It’s currently 13% below the Washington state average, and only 3% above the national average. For those relocating from larger cities like Seattle or even out of state (looking at you, California), that difference is life-changing.
With short commute times (12 minutes on average), access to wide-open landscapes, and a median age of just 29.3 years, Quincy offers the kind of lifestyle that’s both peaceful and forward-moving. It’s no wonder that the town is drawing young families, remote workers, and entrepreneurs alike.
And let’s not forget the location: Quincy is just minutes from the Columbia River Gorge, family-friendly parks, and the world-famous Gorge Amphitheater—a magnet for music lovers and outdoor adventurers.
