[Seattle area folks]
So if I had to leave Seattle, what are your views on Edmonds/Lynnwood/Everett vs Renton/Kent/Auburn?

(Forget the east side, it's more expensive than Seattle!)

Would you be commuting to north or south Seattle? Because not passing through most of Seattle is always a selling point

So Renton/etc is a straighter shot

It's just that like, Edmonds is pretty? And I've lived north of town for twelve years now.

Yeah, hence the conflict. PLus I'm in denial that I have to leave the city but there's not much I can do about that.

I've managed to stay afloat in Seattle proper all this time and I'm a bit resentful, tbh

I like North better than South, but then I don't commute to Issaquah. Might also look at Burien, tho, there's some pretty lovely pockets there, around the Seacrest neighborhood.

Right by the airport isn't too great, also it's right by the airport.

The commute is an adventure. Edmonds is nice though. And has things to do, but it all is very suburby for sure

In fact my commute would be comparable to yours since I work in Eastgate/Factoria and Issaquah is just like another 10 min down 90

but imo Edmonds is more towny than renton and everett which feel more suburban

Depends on where in Edmonds? Sometimes the address is a little deceptive

But you're right, most of the places I'm finding are right off 99
