Hi Ron!
Have you considered Kitsap County? Here in the Bremerton/Silverdale/Port Orchard area we are just a short ferry ride away from Seattle and all it has to offer, but without all the extra hustle and bustle of the city. Here in Bremerton we have been making changes to accomodate those who love the city lifestyle but don't love the amount it cost's to live there. Please check out the City of Bremerton website:
http://www.ci.bremerton.wa.us/
It is full of useful information!
If you would like any information please feel free to contact me anytime.
