Best coffee shops in Fort Lewis?

As someone who grew up here, it's not perfect but it works for me. A lot has changed in the past few years though. dating scene used to be much affordable but now it's average.

Real talk - this place is not for everyone, and I think that's OK.

If you value healthcare, you'll love it. The dating scene is genuinely surprisingly good and I've found I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. My neighborhood (West) is developing and I feel safe walking around at night.

But if you're coming from Pittsburgh, be prepared for the culture shock. weather is completely different here. And Rising rent and home prices.

My advice would be to visit for at least a week before committing. Rent first, don't buy. And explore multiple neighborhoods - they're all different.

Hot take but I love the pace of life here. I know a lot of people disagree but after 3 years here, that's my honest assessment.

Bought a house here in 2022 and it was the best decision I ever made. Property values have gone up a bit since then.

I've been living here for 5 years and I'd say it's exactly what I was looking for. The housing market is decent compared to other places I've lived. Overall Would recommend to anyone considering it..
