I lived in Seattle for almost 10 years. I moved to Tacoma for the affordability and what I noticed was a much cleaner downtown Tacoma. It’s also much safer than ever. When I was a kid growing up in Lacey, Olympia, and Tumwater, Tacoma was on the news all the time for all the wrong reasons. Today, we’re in the news for all the right reasons! But don’t just take my word for it, check out this article by South Sound Business:
“I think the same is happening in the (Tacoma) Dome District” and elsewhere in town, like the Proctor and Stadium districts, he said. There’s available real estate — old warehouses, for example, that can be better used and that have significant character, he added, noting the city’s willingness to rehab them, as has occurred in the Brewery District, rather than demolish everything for new towers.”
