Steilacoom, University Place, Ruston, Old Town, Proctor District, Fircrest are all amazing places, and the good news is if you're a Sr. NCO or Officer type you can afford to live anywhere in Tacoma area.
Completely avoid Lacey, Puyallup, Spanaway, Parkland, and Yelm. They're full of Joes, fake cowboys, meth, Ramtha, and @TommySQC And they lack chowder bread bowls.
If you don't mind driving a bit, Brown's Point is great. Lots of rich Milf sloots in yoga pants walking their shit-zoos.
Go to the Harvester for breakfast. Try the Harmon for the $3 steak night and the coldest craft beer in town. Make sure to visit the glass museum and the Point Defiance Zoo. Tillicum has $1 Asian Buffet. You can ride the Sounder to downtown Seattle. And the Ruston Way Ram has a "Cancer and Rickshaw" special where for 15.99 you can have all you can eat and a rickshaw ride to the site of the former Asarco Smelter.
There's lots of tricks to navigating through the Ft. Lewis (I refuse to bow down to that stupid JBLM fucking term) traffic. Feel free to PM myself or @TommySQC for details, we have the South side/ Ft. Lewis living thing dialed in.

Reading about all these people talk about great places to live in Pierce County reminds me of AoG talking about FCS/DII football.

Disagree. Most of the Board of Directors and original occupiers of this site grew up/live S of the King County line.whatshouldicareabout said:Reading about all these people talk about great places to live in Pierce County reminds me of AoG talking about FCS/DII football.
So stick that in your Sammamish discipline hole or whatever the fuck and smoke it.

Oh yeah, and @RoadDawg55 - your military friends weren't typical. Most CONUS Army installations are in the Deep South, and actually being close to a decent city is rare for the Army. Maybe they were Fayettetards, and worshiped the Division and airborne hooah and all that crap. Fuck them.
I don't jump out of airplanes without a compelling reason and I try to keep my personal brainwashing to a mimimum, thus I avoid FT Bragg.
My other choices are garden spots like Killeen, TX, Leesville, LA, or Dothan, AL. The south Sound is a fucking gift from Providence. Hope this one pans out and I actually get my orders in hand. -
The "workplace violence" at Ft Bragg can be a bitch

This. Ft. Lewis is by far and away one of the more desirable sought after posts. My Soldiers that have hated it have been sister fucker types from Alabama or Texas that either hate the fact that we don't have 98% humidity and water moccasins, or miss the meetings where they can wear white. K, I'm speaking in hyperbole but not much.AZDuck said:Oh yeah, and @RoadDawg55 - your military friends weren't typical.

I'm a PNW kid and my first 3 stops were Ft. Hood (got there just a couple of weeks after the Luby's Massacre and it was open), Ft. Irwin (Mojave Desert....fuck me...just fuck me with a rusty claymore) and Ft. Polk, Louisianna. I got sent back to Ft. Lewis in the late 90s and thought I was in fucking heaven.

I'm a PNW kid and my first 3 stops were Ft. Hood - shit hole; only the proximity to Austin makes it tolerable (got there just a couple of weeks after the Luby's Massacre and it was open), Ft. Irwin - absolute shit hole; you'd interact with more people if you were living on the moon (Mojave Desert....fuck me...just fuck me with a rusty claymore) and Ft. Polk, Louisianna - Not too many places worse than this. I got sent back to Ft. Lewis in the late 90s and thought I was in fucking heaven.
