Default Greater Seattle living

Where is a good area to live in the Greater Seattle? In terms of good school district, low crime, etc.

Thanks

Issaquah is my pick. But it’s not really affordable for an Alaska pilot hired today buying at today’s prices.

I'm not an Alaska guy, but was stationed at JBLM for a few years. We lived in the Puyallup area, near South Hill specifically. We absolutely loved it with young kids. About 45 minutes from the airport, no I-5 traffic, good schools. We also looked at the newer houses being built in the Orting area. Loved it so much, it's been our dream to get based at SEA for a career.

You can't swing a dead cat without hitting an airline pilot in Gig Harbor.

What about Mill Creek? Also, how is the SEA-LAX commute?

PETA will get you for that - at least in King County. Gig Harbor you might get away with it...
