U District may be a little pricey just because it is prime location. Close to Greenlake, close to the school obviously, 10 min from downtown Seattle or Bellevue. In general, Ravenna & the surrounding U-District neighborhoods can be quite a bit pricier, but are really a great place to live.
Alot of people complain about the rain, but hey, you want to live in a green city with natural beuaty all over the place, it has to be watered by something… And it’s really the greyness that gets to people, not the rain itself. It really doesn’t rain any more than any other major 4 season city. You have to compromise something in every city, & some rain for year long beauty really isn’t much of a compromise if you ask me. (Ask my brother tho, and he’ll tell you a different story, haha, but he loves the weather in Houston,TX, so you really shouldnt ask him, lol, that weather sucks)
In addition, here is a copy of an answer I wrote to another question about Seattle:
In the Greater Seattle area whether it be Edmonds, Bellevue, or South Seattle, you will have beautiful views, mountains, trees, water, seasons, its just great overall.
It has a little something for everyone! If you are the city slicker, you can live in downtown Seattle, OR Downtown Bellevue. But if you prefer the countryside, just 20 minutes away you have Issaquah, Duval, or Woodinville. You get the best of both worlds, and it’s only a short drive away. (I sound like I’m advertising for a travel magazine…haha)
Given we have our rush hour traffic to watch out for, but as soon as you get to know the roads a little, taking backroads will be a sinch when its bad. Rain really is’nt as bad as people make it out to be. If anything, it makes you appreciate a nice sunny day when they are here =). Nothing like walking on Alki Beach with the whole Seattle Skyline at your disposal.
It’s a really relaxed culture here. The food is great. The people are diverse. You’ll see all sorts of nationalities hanging out together. People tend to not discriminate against anyone, and during winter when it snows, it’s a winter wonderland view.
As you can see, I’m a HUGE fan of this city, and although consider moving away often just to travel the world, I ultimately would love to come raise my family here.
I was born in Russia, but am a Seattlite for life =). If you are an outgoing person, you will love this city & state.
