It’s this entire state. I love the weather here but I try to never go near Seattle. Tacompton is no better since they let homeless junkies run amok. I was at the Tacoma Mall a few months back and a junky was shooting up over a trash can in the middle of the mall and it was like 11am on a Sat. The mall and Lakehood town center constantly have carjackings and an armed robberies in the parking lot it’s fantastic. We should just start calling the Puget Sound area little Haiti.
Flee east. I did, and it is great. If the left thinks an area is a shithole, it will probably actually be great.
I feel like I live in America again.
All of this has made me more and more rural. I'm already in like a fringe sub-suburb and I'm looking to build on some land I have in the next few years.
I hope they continue to hate and look down on small town life myself, so they will stay away. I like the boring little places just called Cafe or Diner where I can grab a meal, the butcher shop attached to the gas station, a little bit of space around my house, etc. I don't want to be crammed into a tiny apartment and have to walk to some place named like "Avocado + Kale" where I can't actually park a car, just to not be able to order a cup of coffee without understanding all the pretentious BS they write on the menu.
It's coming out that way too. Kenmore / Juanita has been shit for a while Kirkland is rapidly becoming the same. Seeing the diversity riff raff hanging around Redmond and Woodinville in the evening now. Won't be to long. With the light rail almost done in Redmond the homeless will migrate over and take over Marymore park. Mark my words. They're already camping out off the trails in the bush along the river.
Yes, but are they regular homeless or crazy Microsoft workers?
I would love to flee East, but the majority of my family is in the Pacific Northwest states. I love the Midwest and Appalachian mountain region though.
Mine lives there too.
Covid was the test. They all complied even while complaining that it was illegal or unconstitutional. If yours did too, then recognize that they will comply with future illegal actions too, and that this means they are no protection.
Fuck off, we're full.
No thanks, its great here.
It's a sad day when Yakima is looking nice. I've been told that Olympia is nicer. That blew my mind.
Olympia is still pretty bad. It’s really just like a time warp to what Seattle was like 10+ years ago. Still super leftist hippy dippy they just do a better job of caring for the homeless… by making them go somewhere else.
The whole highway 9 corridor has turned into utter trash. The east side is better but starting to turn too
