I've talked before about how I really like our apartment, but that we aren't crazy about the neighborhood. After living here for a while, I'm still pretty underwhelmed by the neighborhood, outside of the few pockets of apartments, the neighborhood on the whole seems rather unpopulated and industrial. But it's not that bad, at least not in our immediate vicinity. It doesn't seem unsafe at all, and there are a few restaurants and other things around. There are sidewalks everywhere and it's quite pedestrian friendly. We're also close to other areas, like downtown and Capitol Hill, that do have more people out and more things to do. Overall it's a relatively convenient location that's still re-developing. Click on the image below for some pictures that we've taken while walking around.
