Re: How safe is West Seattle?

Norman, West Seattle is fairly community oriented but the family friendliness and small town feel has been slipping away each year, in my opinion. I also do not feel as safe as I used to and I live in what people say is one of the nice areas. There are lowlife thugs in all areas of WS in my opinion.

.

Most importantly, if you have or will have kids, look into the current status of Seattle Public Schools.

.

Also, commuting in and out of West Seattle by car, for work, is very congested unless you can leave WS around 6 AM and get back by 3 PM.

.

Just a few thoughts. Good luck.
