Mixed feelings about Delridge

Delridge is an interesting street. There are parts where it seems very solidly suburban and safe, and then just a few blocks later there will be an abandoned building or questionable looking business....Full review

A nice up and coming street

I've a good friend who lives on Thistle and I have to say that the area has changed a lot in the last few years. Many of the homes have been refurbished, or at least are being well taken care of which...Full review

Busy, busy but cute little houses, some with views!

This is a major arterial running north/south in West Seattle. As such, there is a lot (and I do mean a lot) of traffic running up and down this street. It is unfortunate because there are so many ador...Full review

Busy street but great atmosphere

Harbor is pretty industrial...there are more condos and apartments going in due to its proximity to Alki beach, but overall this is still a little rough around the edges. While the water is close by,...Full review

Yikes, this is a busy street!

Fauntleroy is a main arterial in West Seattle and sustains a lot of traffic. While there are many residences on this street, both single and multi-family, I don't think this is a street I would choose...Full review

Mostly apartments, but nice ones!

This street in Renton is populated mostly with condos and apartments. Back in the day they were just average quality, but they have definitely gotten nicer as Renton has become a more desirable place...Full review

Pretty nice street, but lots of traffic

SW Genesee Street has many nice qualities, but it also offers a quite a bit of traffic noise. In general, the street is green and the homes well cared for. There are many condo buildings and apartment...Full review

A nice little street experiencing some growth

45th Ave SW is a nice quiet tree lined street that runs through West Seattle. It is generally quiet with mostly local traffic and excellent access to buses heading downtown. This was a very friendly s...Full review

A truly terrific location!

38th Ave SW is a great street to live on, especially if you like to walk to shopping and food! 38th Ave SW runs parallel to California Ave in the heart of West Seattle so you are never more than a few...Full review
