"A good balance of convenience and quiet"
I like to walk along NW 112th between Greenwood and Fremont, and I find that you leave behind the constant noise of Greenwood after only a block. From there on east, it's just quiet residential housing with little traffic. At the same time, you don't give up access either to Greenwood or to the Northgate area via the Avenues and 105th.
It's a good neighborhood for walking or jogging, with gravel shoulders that serve as soft sidewalks, and a fun variety of architectures among the houses. I haven't had many conversations with the residents, but it's usually raining when I'm walking so spirits may be somewhat dampened.
In any case, the city has its eye on the neighborhood after building a median over on Greenwood. It's safe, clean, and I wouldn't mind putting some roots down there.
