Holy shit people, you'd all probably think the area I am living now is SUPER SKETCHY !! I see, like, minorities...all day.  Well, the area might just be a bit old - my 2br is $1800/mo., so it's not terribly low rent. |

It is closer to the sketchy bits than I would like (several big apartments about a mile down the road to the W),
 There aren't *gasp* minorities living there are they!?!? You should buy a gun.  This is my last response to you. STFU and go jump up your own diseased asshole. |

 Okay. It was a joke Super Sensitive Guy. Other people in the thread also ribbed you in the same way, but feel free to take your anger out on me. Nice personal touch bringing my surgery into it. Very mature. I see why they made you a mod.

Anyway. Seeing as we're arguing about crimes, know that Seattle rates fairly average to low in violent crime, but WAAAAAAAAY above average in people stealing your shit. Compare that to say, Atlanta where your odds of getting raped, shot, or murdered are about 4x the national average. So yeah, lock your stuff up in Seattle. I wouldn't worry too much about getting robbed at gunpoint.

I lived in Cap Hill for a stint, and can attest that things go from pristine to pretty sketchy in a few blocks.
That said, I tended to roam the streets at midnight with no fear, because I HAD been living in DC, and Seattle sketch was notices posted that SoandSo the drug dealer was no longer welcome there. DC sketch was "That place is more than two blocks from the metro? In THAT neighborhood? Fuck it, tell your friends we're not going."

Wowzers. My wife just accepted the position, she has to start out there on 9-26!! I feel like a ton of bricks just got dropped on me. Not that I wasn't planning for this, but damn!! It's going to be a crazy couple of months. We should have the house on the market by Monday.... Here's hoping we can get it to sell without taking a bath.

Yah, last time we looked at selling it was just as bad as a short sale. Probably worse now. I think we bought in 2004. My friend ended being in the hole $50k to his parents when he had to move to Virginia. |

The news is terrible with it right now, but actually our subdivision is trending really nicely, at 1-2% up or down asking price for this year. When our realtor pulled sales in mid-July, there were only two foreclosures and there was a 45day turnover on sales. So we're trying to be optimistic. But we're also listing at a shitty time of year. If it doesn't move by November, this might be bad.
