    "25 years and counting. It’s a vibrant and diverse neighborhood that has a strong sense of community without asking for conformity. The neighborhood just keeps getting better. And it’s changed me for the better, too. "

    "Living here is wonderful. Lots to do and great food. Diversity is a huge asset. There are some great schools (Wing Luke, Rainier View) and some schools getting local (Aki Kurose) and national recognition for turnaround (Rainier Beach). Still, there is inequity between North Seattle schools and South Seattle schools. We are under-resourced here,and we don’t have PTSA programs with the financial power of the North Seattle schools to fill in the gaps the way they do."

    "I’ve lived here for almost 4 years and have enjoyed just about everything about this neighborhood. It has the reputation of being unsafe or sketchy, but I’ve found it to be quite the opposite. The people are welcoming and respectful, and the streets are quiet. Comparatively affordable to the rest of Seattle, it has a lot of first-time home buyers moving in. It’s close to the water and several parks including Seward and Kubota Gardens. It also has convenient public transportation access (with nearby parking). I do wish we had more grocery store options nearby, and I’m still not yet used to having to get into the car and drive for even the smallest things, like a cup of coffee, but this is a small price to pay in exchange for everything I love about the neighborhood. As the area begins to gentrify, the city would be well-served to protect and preserve the diversity and history of the neighborhood, which is part of what makes it so great."
