    You all know how much we love the Southend of the greater Seattle area! This week we’re talking all about how much we love Kent! Much like Des Moines, Kent is in an amazing location situated right between Tacoma and Seattle. This makes Kent a convenient place to live regardless of which city you are commuting to. Kent is the 6th largest city in the state, so there’s a lot of fun things to do here. In fact, there are over 70 parks and recreation facilities.
    Kent is one of our absolute favorite places in the greater Seattle area, and whether you live in Kent or you’re just visiting, we think it’s definitely worth exploring! We’re excited to be giving you 7 of our favorite things to do in Kent so that you can make the most of your time in this fun city! We hope you love you Kent just as much as we do!

    The howls of psychotic breaks in the middle of the night; gaunt, haunting figures shivering along the barren a.m. streets, and the occasional screech of tires from a car dumping a beaten, broken man into the gutter and taking off, but I still miss it.

    I owned a 2 story condo with a garage in the Lakes area of Kent (2013-14) and then rented a beautiful apartment for 5 years just up the hill when my son was born back in 1985. I've also lived in Seattle on Lake Union and more recently in Everett, WA (north of Seattle) for 6 years. All cities are the same: you have your sketchy areas and your nice areas. If you're rich, you can afford safer areas. If you're lower middle class, like me, just be careful. Certain areas of Kent are nice and others are not so nice...just like any city.

    I don't know why I searched for this, lol. But I've lived in Kent my whole life; 22 years. It's a great place to live. And though I would love to travel the world some day, I could never see myself leaving this area. Kent will always be home for me.
