Talk to me about Bremerton.

[Mauiwowi]

1000s of lonely navy chicks trying to get laid. none cute whatsoever

[Dussen]

I'm single and live in the boonies yes. However I'm still close enough to everything that I enjoy.

To each his own.

[StereoInstaller1]

Boonies are great if you have a couple of little kids and a wife.

Single life blows ass in the boonies.

I live in the northern part of Kitsap county and like it. I'm in probably the smallest town here, Hansville, but it's still only a 40 min drive to Bainbridge/Seattle ferry, or 20 min to Kingston/Edmonds, which will put you about 20 min north of seattle. I'm in a 3 bed 2 bath 2 car garage house for just under $200k. I commute back and forth to Silverdale every day for work and see E30's quite often I drive my E30 M3, 325is, or E46 Wagon and always get a light flash here and there.

If I were you I'd look into the north end of Kitsap County.

no haha, theres nothing to do around here. you even said you go to silverdale to work.

You guys are over rating the ferry.

Look George, from Bremerton to seattle you only pay car and driver. That comes out to $14 for as many people your car can fit. Seattle is 75 miles away. So 75/25=3. 25 is E30 gas mileage. 3*$3 a gallon for gas and you are $9 in. Ferry is slightly shorter way more relaxing and "unique".

Coming back home is where they get you. With 5 people it can be like $35 But driving home is roughly 20 minutes more traffic free.

[BraveUlysses]

No problem at all. Ferry fees sure suck though!

Still considering Bremerton? :-/ I live in Everett (of all places) and there's no way I'd live in Bremerton.

[george graves]

I have unknown springs - about an H&R sport drop.

[nando]

how low? I didn't have any problems, but ferry terminals may vary..

[george graves]

I'm not into tracking my car. I do have a kart -that if I don't sell might take up there.

Q: Can lowered cars get on and off the ferry easily?

[nando]

They host a few, but it's irrelevant because there are way more at Pacific (they cost 200 instead of 125) and Pacific is a real track, not an airport like Bremerton. In any case, it would still be nice to be by Bremerton but I'm much rather be closer to Pacific if I was choosing a "track" to live by.

definitely

we have mission raceway just across the border, which is somewhere inbetween bremerton raceway and pacific. It's a real track, but it's fairly short and mostly flat.

I also forgot we do have WWU, which is dominated by young women.

[balooshinakus]

They have track days/hpde's at Bremerton too. Alfa club hosts some really cheap events.

and the mt baker highway, which is better since there's less traffic once you get past the little towns.

[jasonsnoddy]

^^^^^^^^^^^^^you also have chuckanut

I'd reccomend bellingham (at least it's close enough to some major cities) but we have crappy jobs, houses are expensive, and we have tons of smelly hippies and left wing enviro-wackos. On the plus side we have a ton of parks and trails, lakes, mountains, oceans, etc. And you're on the I-5 corridor.

I hate the seattle area though, I could never live there. Way, way too much traffic, taxes are even higher, but better jobs.

I could never reccomend living on the peninsula unless you want to be isolated.

I'd also say avoid Everett at all costs.
