Tacoma is a freaking dump full of boring BSers

Tacoma is beautiful and a nice place to live.

Cameron Felton I live in San Antonio and I know for a fact that Tacoma can't be any worse

Juventud Guerrero 2.0 Eh I think Tacoma is better in my opinion and to be honest that's just because I'm ready to get out of Texas. I know the lifestyle in Tacoma is much slower paced. Everyone is different, it just depends on what you're looking for. Yeah it's truly sad, I feel like San Antonio and Austin are just getting crazy big at a ridiculous rate.

DC R I agree, particularly North Tacoma. Now sure more expensive, but if you can swing it, worth it. The views in Washington are views that you simply can't get anywhere else. Can't wait to move to Tacoma January, 2019.

Like S L St with all the homeless and their tents lol

drood cool it’s all the ghetto when your in Tacoma lol

Yeah just go to the eastside 💀

@mojo I'm born and raised in Tacoma. Gangs and shootings are common my father was a part of it many of his family was i chose to stay away from that stuff. Matter of fact a drive by happened in my alley way a few weeks ago. Homeless are everywhere some walk in you're yards or porches. The environment is poor and the schools are very low standard and shootings and bomb threats along with gang members are frequent in them. If you do plan on moving stay away from the east side. This is just my experience I'm sure others have their's. 👍

@@LoganSimpkins04 Dude I grew up there too. Lived on S. 12th near Orchard. It was a safer area kinda but you are right in the late 80's it was rough in Hilltop. We were homeless for a few weeks and had to stay at the shelter on S 6th. Crime was all around, my mom got her purse snatched and I was jumped many times walking to school. I am sure its a different place now a days. I know down on S. Tacoma Way by the B&I it has also gone down hill.

If u like being cold and tweekers living erywhere..yea..u guess they have nice jobs..nuthin to do after work but fish in the mud..i guess

Michael Flavel Oh no! So much more! Hiking, mountain biking, canoueing, sure fishing, and you can also go to Vancouver BC if you want to, depending on which city in WA you live in.

Good place to raise kids.

It is beautiful love to walk down the street and see Mt. Rainier

I really love Tacoma Washington because it's a beautiful city in metro Seattle and in the Pacific northwest and I really enjoy visiting the Tacoma art museum with my parents last summer

Me too- my daddy passed away two years ago. He was so much fun. I can totally sympathize with you

Hilltop, you're no talking about Gault middle school are you?

Yep. The east side is a rough, dirty ghetto pretty much

i must be extremely lucky then cause ive lived in this city all of my life and not once was a victim of a crime.

I think much of that data is obsolete. Since the opening of the University of Washington downtown and the Link Light Rail, there has been a lot of development downtown as well as an improvement in the quality of life. I have two teenagers and a 9 year old and we are downtown all the time, at all hours, and have never been the victim of a crime.

Don't be fooled the crime element is real.

Im born and raised in South Tacoma. I've been robbed, my block has been shot up twice, my brother has been jumped, and I've had my car stolen. I'd bet if nothing happened to you or someone you know then you lived it up in Stadium District or North Tacoma.

@@suprastevio2264 i was born in Shalishan moved to hilltop gang activity was bad back than, now its more theft. I almost got car jacked by 4 guys, my yard has had stuff stolen, by cars have been broken into, its bad.

It's not that great.

Washington as a whole is a great state some people just wanna make it seem bad

Yeah as a tacoma native I can also say that the tacoma school district fucking sucks

Ok but Seattle’s homeless is worse😂

Tacoma is a wonderful place you guys should live their

Not too far from Manchester. We are settled in Bedford.

Laura Street omg are we twins? i had to move to texas and can't wait to move back to tacoma

Not tryin to be rude or cynical but I've never heard of anyone trying to move back here before.

hey laura I moved from Tacoma/Yakima and moved to Arkansas I can’t wait to move back

Well, that's probably what the owner of Fleet Feet meant by the name. First, they rip you off, and then they run away quickly (i.e. fleetly) in their way-overpriced shoes!

Amen !!!!!! Trying to decide if my family and I should move bk by 2019

It's not that great.

We are

It's not great. It's AWESOME

@@chubsterwubster That is less than great

yeah I heard there is a lot of gang related stuff. Maybe those kind of people move to Tacoma from other bigger areas like Seattle ?

It has not changed. Tacoma is homebase for the Crips.

@@carlosmendoza8312 yes I believe that was who shot our townhouse. Really made impression on me to own firearms at a young age.

Lol i went there

Tea N' Lemonade it’s filled with gangs...

A G Depends on where you are, North Tacoma, I doubt it. Stop trying to keep people from moving here and worry about your own life please and thank you.

A G I do understand why you would say that based on its history in the 70’s, 80’s and 90’s but I’ve been hearing that things have been getting a lot better because of the upcoming developments of the city.

@@camf8372 the Airborne Ranger who took on the game's on the hilltop is a friend of mine. Things sure changed after that.

Cameron Felton I live in Seattle I’m not stopping anyone from moving just talking about past experiences

Dr. Ryan Bland it rains a lot in the early spring fall winter... but it’s not normal rain it either barely there rain light rain or medium rain and then sometimes the heavy rain that your prob thinking of But most of the time it’s just barely there rain light rain and then maybe medium rain But late spring to late September not to much rain if any... but this video glams up the look of Tacoma a lot Kind of like if you saw a video highlighting New York with cheese shops and flower shops and beautiful rental properties and amazing parts and water front views But wasn’t realistic about the Smell... how crowded it is the busy pace the guy peeing on the wall next to the subway the of the smell water by the bay the loud aggressiveness and super long lines “WELCOME TO NEW YORK BABY!” Lol 😂

it has its seasons yet the weather is very minor compared to the northeast, im sure you’ll like it, very calm place and friendly people.

Phil Graves it actually is the safest😂 good call

I live in hilltop and it aint that bad at all. Now it isnt the safest by any means. But everybody minds their own business but you know #keeptacomafeared

Nope lol

Nah everyone in tacoma is hella antisocial, like perpetually in a bad mood. There's this cloud of moodiness and depression over everything, it's hard to explain, but it's also kind of cool

Yes I do!

@@Nathan-se3fr Amazing Animal

craigslistrr O why

Crazy traffic to Seatle

Please give me whatsapp or telegram no.

best of luck and my family moving there to. I just don't know what part of Washington. I know it can't be too far from Seattle.

Madison Gonzalez bruh Tacoma Literally the 8th ranked worst city like !?

melanin god nigga stay in Seattle

Buy a gat G

We moved here in 2016 from Brooklyn. It is much more diverse than the video would suggest. We have a wide variety of neighborhoods, economic levels, races and ethnicities. Yes, it is grey for about 8 months of the year, and by March one feels suicidal. But we also have 4 months with NO rain, long sunny days that are never above 80. There are some areas that are questionable and the downtown is only slowly developing, but my kids also play all around the neighborhood we live in and this is Hilltop (look that up).

Dana M Man you’re beautiful

What about 2018...its beautiful. Any smaller city will have shady characters and areas. But you gotta tale the bad with the good. Its gorgeous there.

No.

Shut up nerd

Fairbanks or hilltop lol Multiple hills here that are referred to as "the hill"

@@SMD-si7fm hilltop

Aaaaaaaaa me too

@@djnotnice6263 do you go to high school there bc I'm looking for a place to do an exchange year do you know any good schools?

@@frankysworld1121 I went to Stadium high school in Tacoma!!!

Robin Hunt Ight bro so what I’m in hilltop Tacoma the community is actually getting better

@@islurin4981 Dude Tacoma is night and day better than it used to be. Downtown is so much better than it was 20+ years ago.

Please give me whatsapp or telegram no.

you mean the Tacoma Narrows Bridge or "Galloping Gertie"?

what are good areas to live with family and children?

melanin god Rainier (Columbia City), Skyway, some parts of Renton, North Burien (NOT ANY OTHER PART OF BURIEN), Delridge along Delridge Way (the east side of West Seattle), South Park, some parts of Beacon Hill, and parts of the Central District are all pretty bad as well and ESPECIALLY WHITE CENTER I can't tell you the best place but I can tell you the worst places, stay safe

Yeah, Tacoma is so bad, I mean Seattle has it's traffic, but I-5 is backed up 24/7 from 10 am to 7 pm at the one interchange, and it seems like the construction will never end

That’s very true! I live in Olympia, Washington and when I go to Tacoma it feels very different. Feels like your in the hood. Lol! Olympia, Washington is WAY better!

Thank you..that is how i kno this person lived in tac!!👍🏾

i'm going into grade 8, and tps sucks. i was bullied most of 2nd- 7th grade and none of the staff never did anything, even if they saw. they only took action when we got into a "fight", and even though they hit me first, i got sent home because i hit harder?

swag cat omgg middle school in tacoma SUCKS but trust me bro when you get to high school it'll be so much better. still not very good but a lot better

Tacoma has the worst crime rate in Washington state.

Is Tuscon really that bad? Seems nice with a major uni in town and designated UNESCO Heritage city.

I’d say Tacoma and Tucson are about the same Tacoma and Yakima Washington are the two most dangerous cities in Washington

@mojo hes white alrite i bet thais do it better i heard

Then your missing nothing let’s trade places

There’s a ghetto part in every city. I’ve lived in the east and south and north end (best of course) of Tacoma and I love it all.

Dynamac mc 😂 I’m smiling for two reasons, your funny comment and cuz I drive and love my 4x4 Tacoma! 👍🏽

What's that?

When Grapes Pop by the water it smells really bad

AlexDutyBMX/MTB Does that mean swimming in the water is something people wouldn't do? I just imagined the water being a popular place to be...

Well no, people go in the water. Its just the things that cause it are near the water. If you look it up it says "A variety of causes have been attributed to the Aroma of Tacoma, including sediment in Commencement Bay, sulfur released from the Simpson Tacoma Kraft pulp and paper mill, a rendering plant, the U.S. Oil refinery, or a combination of all of these factors."

AlexDutyBMX/MTB Oh, okay - thanks for taking the time to answer, I appreciate it. :)

Ten things i hate about you was shot at stadium high school in Tacoma Washington

Thnx for the advise

Born in Tacoma to

***** It does suck.

Newsky79 you can also do that in Seattle 🔥🔥🔥

i have lived in Tacoma all of my life and not once have i been robbed or shot at. sure it is no Sesame Street but there are more deadly cities to live in. also, what you meant to say was "in Washington" not "in the United States"

The fbi isn’t in the streets and have to live through it like we do I don’t trust them for anything

Poor and homeless but beautiful on the outskirts!

Please give me whatsapp or telegram no.

It really is.. university place which is very close is the HOOD tho

Really is tbh kids on my bus yell htc (hill top crip)
