it depends on the neighborhood

I've lived in Lakewood for about 13 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.

there are trade-offs but the good outweighs the bad. When I first moved here from Denver, I was surprised by pet-friendliness. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.

A few things worth knowing:
- Low crime in most neighborhoods
- Good healthcare facilities
- The safety scene is hit or miss

The downsides:
- Winters are long and cold
- Urban sprawl is real

Overall I'd rate it 8/10 for remote workers. Feel free to reach out with questions..

From a safety perspective, it really depends on the area. Some neighborhoods are average, others not so much. Do your research on specific streets.

Used to live on the Maple Ridge side, now on the Fairview side. Completely different vibe. it's exactly what I was looking for.

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem pretty good.

I've been here 9 years and it was the best decision I ever made. The thing nobody mentions is cost of living. It's developing and it affects daily life more than you'd think.

That said, the dating scene is legit. And if you're into camping, this place is hit or miss.

Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The North side vs the West side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.

It's not for everyone but it works for us..
