Thanks. I grew up in another area of the state also called three rivers and was curious.

There’s a good bbq place there. No one stole from me while I ate my lunch. That’s the extent of my experience.

Have you been to one of those old industry towns that are economically dead and run down? It’s one of those. It’s depressing to just drive through.

Shelton is like Spokane but much smaller and with fewer restaurants and more rain.

Stayed at friends place up there. Very conservative area. Mostly quite little place not much to do. We never figured out If they were tweaker or what but some people showed still don't know if they bought the land or what, but a couple houses down from just in the woods. They parked some rvs there at first then they showed up with random pieces of wood and such started building " structures" themselves but they only worked on it between the hours of 2am and 7am it was nuts you could hear em all night.

And I literally just took off my winter tires. Luckily it's not to bad, but it's the principal.

It really is so depressing to drive through. We drive through Aberdeen and Hoquiam to get to our cabin and they just feel so bleak.

Hate Aberdeen for so many reasons. Purposely drive around the peninsula when I go to the Olympics than through there

Shelled out logging town, filled up with sadness. When you drive through it feels pretty bleak.

Only issue I’ve ever found here is the dumbass rednecks who don’t realize they live on the western side of one of the bluest states in the nation. Aside from that it’s pretty quiet, I’ve never seen any real crime issues aside from the occasional property theft. The food options are getting better and there’s definite growth with Olympia getting so much more expensive and aside from a couple regulars downtown and in the Fred Meyer parking lot there’s not a ton of homeless.

Oh yeah it's nothing like Spokane that's for sure. Most of the crime is Olympia and north towards Seattle

No, I live in Olympia and go there all the time. It’s fine, not a place you I would want to live but it’s fine. It’s like any small rural town in Washington. Aberdeen is the one that’s really rough.

That’s good to hear. The car theft was my biggest concern. I had two cars stolen from me while living in Spokane and I currently live in the Midwest where I don’t lose sleep at night worrying about that anymore. Just trying to get a feel for whether or not that’s what’s I’m getting myself into again by moving to western Washington.
