Random thought, I've been here for 5 years and Crime rate is something to consider -Yakima sits at 446.0 per 100K. Rent is about $1,075/month for a decent place. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. What neighborhoods would you suggest? Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that.
