Review of Port Orchard, Washington


Hate it There?
Star Rating - 5/18/2011
Moved there from Albuquerque, nm and loved it there. Gratnted the sun rarely comes out but i knew that before moving there. The rain isn't really rain its more like a misty type most of the time. Seafood restaurants are good, and depending on their clam chowder, that is what determines how long they will be in business. Seattle is about and hour away by either driving or by car ferry, 35 minutes if you take the foot ferry as its faster, drops you in downtown seattle along the waterfront. City transport (busses) in the downtown area are free. Espresso shops are very good. Housing was affordable but you do need to look around. Jobs are fairly easy to come by. If you are from California people tend to ignore you as they don't care for people from that state just as New Mexicans hate people from Texas, why I have no idea but thats just the way it is.
