^ Have you ever lived in Tacoma? That's the usual response for most people who never lived here. Most people who live here love it. Tacoma itself isn't as crime infested as most people think. Most of the crime comes from surrounding towns like Lakewood, Spanaway, etc. North Tacoma is pretty awesome. I could on and on about the perks of living in Tacoma compared to Seattle or even Portland but, you'd just have to see for yourself.

Tacoma Is tight! Got family in the titlow area and lived there for a brief moment, all I could say is it was really nice. The whole crime thing is all what its made up to be either. Major things I noticed in Tacoma was every neighborhood was really community driven. Honestly hilltop wasn't even that bad either atleast while I was there.

Like I said, I really want to make a trip to the e30 picnic this coming year, maybe take a week off work and spend a few days in Washington/Oregon either before the picnic or after to check things out.

It seems important.Giersdorf, Terry.

It's why we wear the PNW badge with pride in either state!-------------------------------------------------
