Review of Port Angeles, Washington


Doesn't Get Much Better!
Star Rating - 4/20/2016
I have lived here for 16 years. As a dear friend used to say, "This is 'The Land of Ahhhs'..." Having lived in PA near Philadelphia, on Long Island, NY, and in Southern CA, the Olympic Peninsula is my all-time favorite place. Yes, there are overcast days, but what the chart fails to take into consideration is that even on those days, the sun usually comes out for a little while at some point. Washingtonians call them "Sun Breaks". This makes those cloudy days tolerable -- and the sunny days MORE than make up for any dreariness! It is warm enough to be comfortable 9/10 of the year, spectacularly green, friendly people, views that are unsurpassed. If you enjoy nature and don't mind being quite a distance from city conveniences (airport, up-scale entertainment, etc.), Port Angeles or Sequim are the places to live. I have never been happier!
