Used to live on the Cedar Grove side, now on the Eastside side. Completely different vibe. it's improved dramatically in recent years.

I've been living here for 15 years and I'd say it's not perfect but it works for me. The pet-friendliness is tough compared to other places I've lived. Overall No regrets on my end..

Renting here right now, paying about /mo for a 4-bedroom. I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. Compared to Seattle it's pretty good.

Hot take but it's been a really good experience overall. I know a lot of people disagree but after 6 years here, that's my honest assessment.

Depends on what you're looking for honestly. If you want public transit, then yeah this place is great. But if nightlife matters to you, might want to look elsewhere.

We moved here with our family and there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad. Schools in Pine Hills area are underrated. Kids love it here.
