Seattle best neighborhoods

Will be moving to Seattle in a few weeks to start a new job. What are the best neighborhoods/suburbs etc for a single 32 year old straight guy? Nightlife, social scene etc are the priorties for me. Will be working downtown. Okay with commuting. TC: 305k Edit: Just wanna thank all the wonderful people who are giving thoughtful answers and not being verbally abusive for no reason! #seattle

Where are you moving from? What company/tc will be drawing? Office location? All of them can help people to answer your queries better.

The best advice is to not live in Seattle lol. Better quality of life and beautiful neighborhoods 15-30 mins outside of Seattle. Also consider that even living in Seattle you’d still need a car to navigate. Buses are unsafe here and you wouldn’t wanna walk the city. Might as well live a little outside of the city. NORTH AND EAST ONLY. Don’t move south

thanks. Yeah, I’ve heard bad things about Tukwila, Burien, Renton etc

Avoid buses at all costs. They are even worse than in NYC. I still have post traumatic flashbacks from the last time I was on a bus in Seattle.

"There are 4 names" Any of them. They are all good. You only want each person to suggest one area? OP is dumb.

Cap hill lmfao

Qualtrics Morans Nov 6, 2023

U District? No way

Madrona/ Madison park is lovely and quiet but also extremely accessible to downtown and cap hill. Definitely one of the pricier areas of the city though.

Cap hill or Uptown

Uptown isn't real. That's called lower queen Anne and no marketing blitz can change that

Capitol Hill

I doubt you can afford any of decent neighborhoods. Just go to Iowa

Unemployed people surely have a lot of time. How much did you bag from begging on streets today?

Google coasting 🏄‍♂️ Nov 6, 2023

Lol ok buddy. I comment wherever I want, especially posts created by unemployed people. Lets hope your new job doesnt rescind your offer
