Reply to Living in Longview WA by [deleted]
II grew up there but I haven't spent much time there in 25 years so I can't really speak to current attitudes or governance or housing opportunities.
You may find it cliquee smaller towns seem to be. But it's the "big town" in the area so it's a lot less isolationist than you might think of a town that size
It's a bit redneck MAGA type place. Very blue collar with the mills and logging background.
I wouldn't feel especially worried being a minority. Plenty of Asian and Hispanic folks (relative to a lot of smaller western washington towns.) And much higher black population than when I lived there.
It's a "planned/designed city" so it has a cute downtown area. For what that's worth these days.
It has a beautiful park in Lake Sacajawea where they have great 4th of July festivities.
It's 1hour+ to the long Beach peninsula. 1.75 hours to cannon beach.
Mount St hellens is 30 miles away.
You can shoot over to eastern Washington, which is a whole different geography, in a few hours.
Portland is an hour away if you need a big city fix.
It's mostly surrounded by forest so you'd do well to get a Weyerhaeuser land pass for hiking and such.
There are much much worse smaller towns/areas that you could end up in Washington or Oregon.
Hope this helps.

Thanks. I grew up in another area of the state also called three rivers and was curious.

It's mostly property crime from tweakers.
I'm not sure it's the place I would want to raise my kids. But other than that it's a fine dumpy small town.

Reply to Cottage food laws are pretty strict... why? by krakHawk
Washington has pretty standard cottage food laws.
Methinks you haven't actually read the Montana Cottage Food Guidance as it states that fermented products or canned fruits and veggies are not permissible their, either.

HA! I have read the Master and Commander series twice. That is, all except for the last book.

Reply to comment by kvrdave in Senate proposal would lower Washington's DUI legal limit for BAC by t800x
Yeah, it's a meta study. But it looks like it's fairly well done.
I was a skeptic of the move at first, but it does seem to be in step with the data that it will save lives.

It is. You can use the Google (or view previous threads on this topic) to find the peer reviewed manuscripts that show this.

We went from Glacier to Big Horn a couple of years ago. It was desolate and much more magnificent for it than Glacier.

How would their proposal differ from the office of the Comptroller Genereal that the US already has?
