Review of Port Angeles, Washington


A Truly Disgusting Place To Live Or Visit
Star Rating - 3/9/2021
Expect the dredges of society in this crumbling town. Where do I start? I have lived in many towns throughout the United States, all having their good and bad. But I'll put Port Angeles on my "I'm never coming back" list.
There is nothing good about it. There's everything bad about it. I'm not including areas where recreational activities may be found in the country, but this is about the town itself.
This is another place where the law has been stifled by brainless bleeding heart liberal leadership. What comes after that? Abundant crime, both property and crimes against people.
Port Angeles is the home of a recent slew of murders, one in particular where children and adults were slain, and the perpetrator is still at large.
The city is home to vagrants who camp, eat, and defecate on public property and monuments where it is forbidden by law, but goes unabated due to mindless liberal pandering.
Look it up yourself. Port Angeles has a mentally unstable man who is well known by the community who swings his favorite machete in public. His last feat was to shoot arrows at the Port Angeles Masonic Temple. He remains free to scare and disturb the public. Will he hurt someone? Seems the town leaders don't give it a thought. Public health is not a priority unless it concerns helping criminals, drug addicts, pedophiles, thieves, street alcoholics, pushers, or revenue from government grants.
Most buildings are derelicts remaining from the once booming fishing and timber industry. Now they are havens for prostitution and drug activity. Methamphetamines are a staple drug in Port Angeles. Take note of a site on facebook called the Clallam County Scanner. The miscreants violating the law is precipitous EVERY day in Port Angeles.
Tie down or lock everything you own...even the catalytic convertor on your car. Meth heads are actually cutting them off of newer cars and selling them to salvage yards for their precious metals...then it's out to satiate their drug addiction with the newly acquired funds they worked so diligently at attaining.
Sell a convertor or burglarize a home. Big decisions are being made in Port Angeles.
Or one may find it a rewarding field trip to the charitable organization who caters to the hapless called Serenity House near the airport which is run by millions in grants, attracting more and more parasites of society...and we taxpayers pay for it. Just ensure you lock your car and don't get out while in that area. You get my drift, right?
The weather? Dark, dank, cloudy, drizzling rain most of the time, mud puddles in the chuckholes of un-kept streets. Port Angeles has the distinct ambiance of a tortured and depressing, as well as depressed city...and everyone in it.
There is a bright side to the weather situation. One always has the opportunity to cuddle up with the addicts and homeless, sheltered on the sidewalk from the overhang on the Goodwill building located on Peabody street. Bathing is frowned upon there.
My final and most enlightening and positive comment regarding Port Angeles is that you won't be forced to stay there.
City of liberals, city of fools.

I agreed with almost entirely. The only part the I didn't agree with was the blame on liberal leadership. The town had a very strong Trump brand conservative side, but it did still have a little band of liberals trying to compete against it. The result was a bit of a mixed bag leadership who couldn't make headway either way, letting politics get in the way of solutions and everybody blaming whichever side they didn't like (as you demonstrated).

I couldn't agree more. I live within 1/2 hour of Port Angeles in Sequim, and the difference hits me hard in the face. Sequim is a heavenly place to live, and I cringe every time there is a need for me to travel through Port Angeles. I advise legally carrying a weapon if you're unfortunate enough to find yourself there. Evil place.
