Bremerton is underrated, change my mind

Longtime lurker here, I'm a college student here and The unemployment rate is 3.0%, which is pretty low. Rent is about $1,535/month for a decent place. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. The food scene here is surprisingly good. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood.

I've lived in Eastside for about 14 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.

I genuinely enjoy living here. When I first moved here from Raleigh, I was surprised by walkability. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.

A few things worth knowing:
- Cost of living is very reasonable
- Good internet infrastructure
- The school system scene is excellent

The downsides:
- Urban sprawl is real
- Limited shopping options

Overall I'd rate it 9/10 for remote workers. Definitely worth checking out..
