NO-PO

While I've heard from other residents that this area used to be a lot worse five or ten years ago, there are still enough drug houses scattered throughout it to make it an undesirable neighborhood. Many of the surrounding businesses, fences, and signs are tagged with graffiti. I've seen broken windows on peoples cars more often than makes me comfortable. Other than a few Oriental grocery stores, there is not much. The Fred Meyer has the worst selection of any Fred Meyer that I've been in and Food For Less closed last fall. Other than Asian food, there are not many good places to eat within walking distance and only 2 or 3 coffee shops that aren't drive-thru's. As far as nightlife is concerned, the options are just as narrow.
