Reply to comment by hoehater in What are some safe towns in Washington to raise a family in? by Direwoulf16

I’m not really suggesting raising a family downtown Portland, the idea was the surrounding suburbs. I also wouldn’t suggest raising a family in downtown Seattle, but OP is clearly talking about surrounding suburbs when he’s talking about the metro area.

Edit: Bonus, if you live in Vancouver, you can take advantage of no income tax and then pop into Oregon to take advantage of no sales tax. Plus you miss the Portland traffic on your monthly drive to Seattle.

From the school perspective Camas is the place to be down that far south. But that’s a hellish commute to Seattle…
