Where are the fun, and safe, places to live in Seattle? |
Travel Info Where there are restaurants, coffee shops that are within walking distance, but still still close enough to the freeway to get to the Eastside/Redmond area? If not in Seattle, what other area can you recommend? Travel Tips Wallingford/Greenlake are two great neighborhoods that have lots of shopping, restaurants, and coffee shops, but they are still close to I-5. If you are looking to commute to the Eastside for work good luck. That commute is awful. My advise would be to move to the eastside or use public transportation. I have a friend who catches the bus to Microsoft from Greenlake every day. Source(s): I have lived in Seattle proper for 19 years. Other Travel Tips The U district is very beautiful, safe , hip, and close to everything Wallingford area is probably one of the most safe places. Green Lake is around there w/ a nice wreath of shops around the road there. Yes, that commute sucks, but it sure beats living on the eastside. Commute isn't too bad from Fremont, Greenlake, Wallingford, Phinney Ridge, Capital Hill, downtown/Belltown (if you want to bus it). Really just about every neighborhood in Seattle has its central location with bars, restaurants, and coffee shops. If you're planning to take a bus, downtown is great b/c you can hop on the 545, or Greenlake is good because of the 65th St Park and Ride to take the 242. If you're going to work at Microsoft, there's a large population of people who carpool, which can also help with the commute. The commute is also not so bad if you can go during "off" hours - like drive over at 6:00AM and go to the gym first, or go in at 10:00 AM. Good luck! |
