Cheapest neighborhoods in Lawai?

Hi all, The food scene here is surprisingly good. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse.

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 14 years ago from Austin and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: Buying is tough right now, renting is more reasonable. We're paying /mo for a 2-bed in Lakewood. It's improving for what you get.

Jobs: The market is established right now, especially in marketing. If you're in engineering you might struggle.

People: Generally underrated. It took about 16 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: challenging. Tons of options if you like Mediterranean.

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

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

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