Review of Bellingham, Washington


how is it?
Star Rating - 2/26/2009
I am born and raised in southern California but a few things have just gotten out of control: traffic, smog, cost of living and the harsh temperatures in the summer. I was just wondering if anyone up there could give me a little info on your neck of the woods. I would really appreciate any info as I know no one up there.

I would like to be in a medium sized town. Not out in the “boonies” but also not downtown. Perhaps close enough to drive into Seattle to catch a game or musical or whatever. Since we just had a kid I’d like him to have a safe yard to play in. Don’t mind the rain but don’t want a lot of snow in winter.

My concerns would be:

How are the people? I find So. Cal people to be superficial and not very friendly.
How often does it rain? Is it really that bad?

Thanks a ton!
