Most overrated things about Lake Forest Park
OK so I grew up here but left for a while. Household incomes average around $158,868 in Lake Forest Park. Average temperature is around 53--F, so expect cold winters. The unemployment rate is 2.6%, which is pretty low. The city has invested a lot in new development. The weather takes some getting used to. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable.
Pros:
- Great weather
- Good job market
- Lots of new development
- Good internet infrastructure
Cons:
- Lack of diversity
- Few job opportunities in some fields
- Poor road conditions
- Mosquitoes and humidity
Worth the trade-offs? The weather takes some getting used to. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. The suburbs are where most families end up. Property taxes are high but you get good services. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. The food scene here is surprisingly good. The suburbs are where most families end up.
