Nicknamed "Grit City," it offers a blend of urban amenities, outdoor access (parks, waterfront), and significant economic drivers like healthcare, logistics, and the nearby Joint Base Lewis-McChord (JBLM), balancing affordability relative to Seattle with challenges like crime, while boasting a strong sense of community and unique neighborhoods.
