question why did you put the housing cost at half, what they really are? Was your research done in the 1980s? or do you really not know much about the state? I do agree that washington is a wounderful and beautful state if you have lots of cash!!!
I am in the commercial security systems install business trust me the things I’ve seen in all of these areas you would not want to raid a child here or try to retire. I have decided to get the heck out ! It’s crashing
I put Seattle and Tacoma at the bottom. Any of the smaller towns beat all of these cities. Pasco, Oak Harbor, Anacortes, Lake Stevens and many others beat any of these. Living in King Country should be avoided.
Not even true true bro lol you know what we call Yakima here in Washington? Crackama, it's worse than Spokane and that's rough. We call that place Spokompton. This list is straight trash. I have lived here nearly all my life and most of these places are expensive and dangerous.
There are very few best places to live in Washington State due to the politics (#1 reason, in my opinion), the taxes, the cost of living, horrible traffic, homelessness, drugs, crime, and even some schools. Don't fool yourself- the best places to live in Washington State are the extreme rural areas, but you won't find a lot of available high paying jobs unless you work from home or don't mind a long commute. I grew up in this state and the last ten years has destroyed what was once a beautiful state. I'll sell you my house for $1.5 million dollars. Just keeping up with inflation around here.
In Sesttle West Seattle white center is great place to live. City of Tacoma is another great place to live. Homes are cheap and rents are low. Downtown Seattle has beautiful waterfront with beautiful mountain views. Seattle is sunny in July and August. Rain the other 10 months. Very clean air. 😅
Sad thing is Californians voted in what they have, then move to our state and vote in the same things that are causing problems here in Washington now. It's like the kid that kept burning his hand cause he kept grabbing the hot iron.
@secretbear87 tri cities if you can handle Republicans spokane if you can handle some crime Wenatchee than probably Olympia also the long Beach area is pretty good if you can handle shit ton of rain but other than that the rest of the places suck here
Funny, you mentioned the Tacoma Narrows Bridge, but showed one in the Tacoma industrial area, several miles North of the Narrows. The Tacoma Narrows bridge actually two bridges these days. And are suspension bridges like t he Golden Gate Bridge.
These numbers are from like 10 yrs ago, make sure you look up the crime rate on any of these citys before you make your move, tacoma is a shit hole with super high crime rate, Yakima has alot of Mexican gangs and high crime for such a small place
I was born and raised in western Washington. We don’t need any more people moving here. The cost of living is rising so much, that I’m close to being priced out of my apartment. Please don’t move here. The crime is also out of control. Buy a home defense shotgun and get lessons on how to use one if you decide to move here… you’ll need it. Response times for police is hours… if the show up.
@@nckgreever150 honestly, probably yes. The thing is the west coast has been labeled as far and away from places like the eastern seaboard, but now it’s a second migration of people. Those people are finding out there is no infrastructure or resources as would be in say Boston, NYC, Philly, etc. the highways here have not been updated since 1962. Most parts of the interstate system in Washington is the original pavement laid in the 50’s and 60’s. Also keep in mind the vast difference between major cities.
Socialist Progressives are in charge in Seattle. Crime rates have skyrocketed, lousy public schools, infrastructure falling behind. The money gets spent on planners and bureaucrats, too often projects are approved, construction not funded.
The Spokane South hill area is very expensive and the Valley is full of Apartments, And we are very full and overpopulated in Spokane Washington And the Valley is my opinion, i lived here all my life 😊
Not true. The east side is subsidized by the west side. Eastern Washington counties annually receive around 750 million bucks more in state revenue distributions than they pay in. I live in Eastern Washington and am always surprised at how few of my fellow east siders are aware of this. They constantly bitch about the west side, but are quite happy to hog much more than their share of state revenues.
Why are all the supposed "best places" all cities? The best places are not the cities, in my view. And the mispronounced names are a give-away that you may not know what you are talking about
Great breakdown of the best places to live in Washington State! I’m really leaning toward Tacoma, but I’m curious - what do you all think about Tacoma vs. Olympia? Which one has a better community vibe?
This is absolutely great, and thank you so much for sharing these kinds of videos. As I had a chance to live in Washington T, and it still remains one of the best experiences, it is really amazing to see it through someone's else point of view. Bring great memories, thank you so much :)
people who don't actually live in Washington made this video I've been all these places if you don't mind the ballooned housing costs and the crime rate oh and the worthless state government and the drugs everywhere its great also the median rents are way higher and if you find under 1K its a dingy/destitute or shoddy slum studio apartment. I hada place in Bellingham that was 975 after utilities and renters insurance Plus rent it was 473sq ft and a shared kitchen with three other tenants
If you're interested in buying a home in WA state - check the annual property tax bill. Your rate is determined EACH year by comparable home sales in your neighborhood.
Washitonion here… is this a comedy because these are the worst places to live. We call Yakima, crackima. Everett is full of hobos and heroin addicts. It constantly rains here. It’s depressing and cold. I have to take 10,000 units of vitamin D every day because my hair and teeth started falling out. I wish we could afford to leave but rent is like $3000 a month here and we’re too poor. A couple bags of groceries is at least $100. There are tents and broken RVs everywhere because everyone is poor here. Please don’t let this video fool you. People are fleeing in droves. And how come every bit of this video shows sunny days when we very rarely have sunny days here?!
Rebecca Tells the Absolute Truth. In Each town some group has the Magical Power to tell the Entire Police and Military Forces to stand down during an ongoing invasion . This causing addiction , job , housing crisis , homeless , rv camp crisis and Allows the Communist to further buy up all things profitable and spy on anything it doesn't own to reverse engineer intellectual property in real time. Every city its the same thing , Asian Women who control the Whyte Males in Business/Property. Massage parlors , drug den motels/hotels , food buffet where there are unhealthy additives , storage units and real estate bought up by communist & others . They did the same thing to cities in Cali and of course Las Vegas . Yakima Wenatchee , Everett ALL CCP / Satanic corruption endless flood . They own everything and everybody behind the scenes . Once towns are devastated they get all the control and real estate etc. Organized
Where would you rather live? I've lived in several states and every place has it's problems. You know what they say - the grass is always greener on the other side. From what I've seen Washington state offers a pretty good quality of life relative to the average US state.
I lived and work construction in Seattle for 15 years. We eventually left because my rights were being totally infringed upon and Seattle and Tacoma became dangerous. Plus to rent a house in Lake Tapps its around $3000/mo now.
I'm curious how your rights were being infringed upon? I'm just a young American citizen looking for a place to move to so I'd like to hear others perspectives!
@Darkstar2425 easy, they are trying to ban all guns here, remove you freedom of choice for schools, medical procedures, they have removed your right as a parent to allow sex gender reassignment. You used to be able to shoot bb guns in your backyard now you can get fined or jailed. The list goes on. Do yourself a favor and actually study history instead of lame responses like "what rights have they taken?" That just shows willful ignorance.
Seattle number 1? I live in Bremerton, not that great, but I refuse to go to Seattle, unless I have to deliver or pick up someone from the airport. I truly despise Seattle.
Don’t move here if want to camp and pay a lot of money if you can get on a long waiting list. If you want to hike you will have to pay to park and most likely get your car broken into If you like to own guns forget it Taxes are way high if you happen to pay off your home the taxes will be as much as most rents in the area. Hey make it sound like the cities that are here are beautiful which they are if you don’t get robbed approached for money or prostitues not to mention the smell of piss in the streets Don’t be surprised that people are from California and you can see what that has turned into. Good luck I have a home I am willing to sell to get the hell out of Jay Inslee sucks campaign
Inslee sucks but Attorney General Bob Ferguson is his likely replacement in this one party progressive state and likely worse than Inslee. King, Pierce, and Snohomish Counties are where the population base is. The rest of the State is irrelevant politically in Statewide elections.
the reasons you mentioned are the exact reasons why I escaped that hellhole. I moved back to Alaska. it was 1° this morning but it felt better than that 39° rain crap. at least we have beautiful snow, the only good thing about winter and that's the only thing western Washington don't get
this guy is sooo wrong. Don't even get me started with home pricing. WAY, WAY out of touch. Yet this guy says is a steal. No way, plus he doesn't even bring up the crime in most of the cities. Seattle is one of the worst places to live. Crime high and not family friendly. Now dont get me wrong, i like the places, but to live there, hell no. way over priced and the homes are outdated and falling apart. if you want a decent home than plan on spending a ton of money. Just not worth it. and the Politics are a crime in itself. an honest opinion, I would stay out of major cities. look into smaller towns to live in. but home prices are still going to be very high and cheaply built. the construction on homes are cheapest materials and cheapest labor. It is not "You get what you pay for." This TH-cam channel is not one you should be watching if you want to move. Do your research, real research. and the schools, I would be very careful on where you would want your children to go. trust me. be careful. Because this channel is straight up lying to you about "Great schools"
Any more, there really isn't anywhere that's decent in WA. Cost of living, crime, excessive taxes, and legislating everything out of existence. Hell, the landscape used to be a draw to people, but now they don't even maintain the roads and hiking trails, half of them are closed due to non-maintenance. So if you're moving to Washington for the hiking, beware that more than half of the roads to hiking trail heads are closed, and the rest require a small 4x4 vehicle jacked up. Besides looking at the mountains, there really is nothing in Washington state unless you are excessively wealthy.
It's not Washington state. It's just Washington. There is nothing that follows it. You must have us confused with D.C. That's what we home growns call the other Washington. "D.C." If people are that confused, you might say, "Washington D.C.", or "the state of Washington." Never say "Washington state." And don't tell people Yakima is a nice place to live. My nephew lives there and he would challenge you on that point. Silver Lake is not what it used to be when I lived there unless you like traffic. The cost of living is over the top everywhere here. Crime and drugs are a very serious problem, also.
Ok let me save u the trouble.... The whole state is one big dump, crime is through the roof, a regular tiny house in a bad area is $600k, there r no good restaurants, roads r horribly designed and to many people live here so it takes u 40 minutes to go a short distance. u only get 3 good months of sunny weather a year, nobody is friendly up here, drugs r everywhere, trash all along the highways. there is absolutely nothing to do unless u like hiking mountains in the rain and having clouds cover the view unless u go on the rare sunny days with the other 300 people that go on that day. the average temperature is 45 degrees and wet for 7 months out of the year. They don't have big restaurants or big anything up here, it's all small cramped old buildings and strip malls. Sadly it's a hollow shell of a state... Extremely beautiful on a sunny day but there's nothing out there
Horrible state to live in....homeless, tweekers everywhere, garbage, needles , human shit on the sidewalks, etc...I was born and raised there. Inslee is a dictator....moved out ....never will go back.
This guy is definitely not from Washington state. How in the world you pick Tacoma, Yakima, and Spokane over Redmond, Kirkland, Newcastle, and Issaquah? you need to redo your video.
Beautiful state, yes! Living here, not so good! East side may be affordable but only in areas where there are only orchards. The closest store or entertainment is hours away! West side, over populated, over priced and seriously over taxed! The government is loaded with corruption! I do not recommend this state! Personally, If I could afford to move out, I would!
The list starts with the most crime in the central Washington than an actual good city than an ok city anything in Seattle besides Kirkland sucks and is supper gettho spokane is gettho and not its in between but this list is dumb
Lived in this state all my life and only watched it decay under the relentless assault on values and freedoms by democrat rulers. It only gets worse every year; this is CA north and soon you will not be able to see any difference.
Do your self a favor, this IS a beautiful place but the woke crap here is BAD, real bad, try Idaho great place and the politics are minimal. over half of Washingtons population wants to secede TO Idaho. If my grandchildren were not here neither would I
Idaho has been run by Republicans for decades and therefore common sense still prevails. It doesn't have the "woke" politics and all the bad policies that are the result.
So glad you're happy in Idaho! It's a beautiful state too. It's a great place to vacation. Washington hospitals are full of Idaho residents that are unable to get the healthcare they need in Idaho. Opps!
yakimaaa...lol. I grew up in Olympia/Tumwater, ...south of the state?? OMG...the cringe listening to this guy...manido park spokane....lol. clueless. NOBODY likes Yakima OR Tacoma....sorry but yeah no thanks.
@@mrswanderlust yes it’s a great city, it flows together with Olympia, Lacey and Tumwater. To the west is the ocean less then an hour, it’s on the puget sound, lakes, south Portland north Seattle an hour away. Great family location.
Don't mention the crime or homeless problems especially in Seattle. I know this is a year old but the fact that the problems in all those cities have escalated since then with all the Dumbocrat control is mind boggling

Best place in Washington is to move to Idaho😊
Try Oregon, just not Portland.
Are you sure this shouldn't be titled "The worse places to live Washington State"?
Hmm I'd definitely say the tri-cities is better than Yakima on this list.

Rent on a one bedroom apt runs around $1,500.00 per month in tacoma and a 2 bedroom around $2,000.00
I see why the Californians are moving here. Sounds so good, although,most of these towns are also on the worst places in Washington. Do your research.
Commifornia is one of the reasons Washington is been fucked up.
Sad thing is Californians voted in what they have, then move to our state and vote in the same things that are causing problems here in Washington now.

There are large variations in rainfall even within the same geographical area, especially on the western side.

yeah but we dont use umbrella’s over here
What about the central area -- Chelan, Leavenworth?
Or maybe the islands -- Anacortes?
All are better than anything on the list and a lot more affordable. Also add the Sequim and Port Angeles areas.
I was born and raised in western Washington. We don’t need any more people moving here. The cost of living is rising so much, that I’m close to being priced out of my apartment.

Is eastern Washington any better? Just curious 🤔 Spokane area?
@@nckgreever150 honestly, probably yes.
The thing is the west coast has been labeled as far and away from places like the eastern seaboard, but now it’s a second migration of people. Those people are finding out there is no infrastructure or resources as would be in say Boston, NYC, Philly, etc.
the highways here have not been updated since 1962. Most parts of the interstate system in Washington is the original pavement laid in the 50’s and 60’s.
Also keep in mind the vast difference between major cities.
Our cities are a hundred miles apart with farmland and empty areas between them. We don’t. Have commuter trains here like east coast.

The whole state is one big dump, crime is through the roof, a regular tiny house in a bad area is $600k, there r no good restaurants, roads r horribly designed and to many people live here so it takes u 40 minutes to go a short distance. u only get 3 good months of sunny weather a year, nobody is friendly up here, drugs r everywhere, trash all along the highways. there is absolutely nothing to do unless u like hiking mountains in the rain and having clouds cover the view unless u go on the rare sunny days with the other 300 people that go on that day. the average temperature is 45 degrees and wet for 7 months out of the year. They don't have big restaurants or big anything up here, it's all small cramped old buildings and strip malls. Sadly it's a hollow shell of a state... Extremely beautiful on a sunny day but there's nothing out there
Tumwater small and charming? your 30 yrs out of date, how about overcrowded, and expensive. Give me a break
Spend time explaining the homelessness in nearly every city mentioned
Horrible state to live in....homeless, tweekers everywhere, garbage, needles , human shit on the sidewalks, etc...I was born and raised there. Inslee is a dictator....moved out ....never will go back.
Inslee is just a dicktator
This guy is definitely not from Washington state. How in the world you pick Tacoma, Yakima, and Spokane over Redmond, Kirkland, Newcastle, and Issaquah? you need to redo your video.
Maybe he’s choosing more affordable places though the ones you mentioned are $$$$$
@@kellypowell1483 You’re right and that’s why he should change the title to the most affordable place to live in Washington not the best!!
Clearly who ever made this video has not been to Yakima.
Beautiful state, yes! Living here, not so good! East side may be affordable but only in areas where there are only orchards. The closest store or entertainment is hours away!
West side, over populated, over priced and seriously over taxed!
The government is loaded with corruption! I do not recommend this state!
Personally, If I could afford to move out, I would!
You have to pay more taxes to the state if you want to live here.
The list starts with the most crime in the central Washington than an actual good city than an ok city anything in Seattle besides Kirkland sucks and is supper gettho spokane is gettho and not its in between but this list is dumb
Lived in this state all my life and only watched it decay under the relentless assault on values and freedoms by democrat rulers. It only gets worse every year; this is CA north and soon you will not be able to see any difference.
Move to Mississippi then, plenty of Republicans there.
@@Aetherius88 Idaho much better
Do your self a favor, this IS a beautiful place but the woke crap here is BAD, real bad, try Idaho great place and the politics are minimal. over half of Washingtons population wants to secede TO Idaho. If my grandchildren were not here neither would I
Thanks, we are considering washington or idaho.
Idaho has been run by Republicans for decades and therefore common sense still prevails. It doesn't have the "woke" politics and all the bad policies that are the result.
So glad you're happy in Idaho! It's a beautiful state too. It's a great place to vacation. Washington hospitals are full of Idaho residents that are unable to get the healthcare they need in Idaho. Opps!
@@krissshellman5899 Funny in my 65 years traveling all over Washington Montana, Idaho and Oregon I have never ever heard that. OOPS Hahahahahaha
🤢
yakimaaa...lol. I grew up in Olympia/Tumwater, ...south of the state?? OMG...the cringe listening to this guy...manido park spokane....lol. clueless. NOBODY likes Yakima OR Tacoma....sorry but yeah no thanks.
@50whatnomadtravelnursemtb5 How is it living in Tumwater? Is it a good place for a young family? Thinking of relocating because of my job.
@@mrswanderlust yes it’s a great city, it flows together with Olympia, Lacey and Tumwater. To the west is the ocean less then an hour, it’s on the puget sound, lakes, south Portland north Seattle an hour away. Great family location.
@@50whatnomadtravelnursemtb5 oh awesome! are you a nurse there? How are the hospitals?
Don't mention the crime or homeless problems especially in Seattle. I know this is a year old but the fact that the problems in all those cities have escalated since then with all the Dumbocrat control is mind boggling
