Top 5 things I love about North Fort Lewis
Poverty rate is 9.4%, which is pretty low. It's a a small town city with about 5,990 people. The suburbs are where most families end up. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. Night life is decent if you know the right spots.
Pros:
- Nice parks and trails
- Low crime in most areas
- Good schools
Cons:
- Rising rent prices
- Mosquitoes and humidity
- Far from major airports
