I (28F) will be moving to Seattle in a few months and have no idea where to move to. I was planning to move to SLU to be closer/walking distance to work but everyone says it’s super boring and the commute from other places isn’t too bad. I’m mainly looking for something lively (bars, restaurants, gyms, etc) safe/walkable at night, and relatively easy to commute to SLU (ideally less than 30 min). I heard Fremont, Queen Anne and First Hill might be good options but I’m not sure which exact area/building (Queen Anne is huge and I’ve heard some parts of First Hill can be sketchy).
Do you guys have any suggestions for buildings/areas to look at? Also, I would really appreciate any insights on these neighborhoods and why you like/dislike about them!
