Fircrest is a community like no other. The fir trees mixed with beautiful parks and greenery make this community so relaxing and calming. Fircrest just upgraded its recreation center and pool at the heart of Fircrest Park. The area looks so modern and welcoming, there is already a sense of belonging when you first come through the parameters of Fircrest. Fircrest's fire department and police station states give the residents a sense of safety and reduce the time of arrival in case of emergency. In addition, the Fircrest community is rich in events for both the youth and elders to enjoy. These events often bring the community together and help support small businesses in Fircrest. Fircrest also has a private golf course with a clubhouse and outdoor pool. Fircrest has so many amazing aspects and should definitely be a recognized community.
Moved here about a month ago and couldn't be happier. The city was clean and orderly, the communities were excellent, and it's right in the middle of anywhere you'd want to go (downtown, proctor district, Ruston, UP, Steilacoom, etc.). Great shops along Bridgeport and tons of parks with breathtaking views of the Sound and Mt. Rainier. Everyone is super friendly at local coffee shops and our neighbor even got us a welcome gift. What a great city to live in!
I like the safeness of Fircrest and would change nothing. Fircrest has a lot of fun activities surrounding it, especially in the summer. Fircrest fun days are something to look forward to every year. Fircrest also has a lot of playgrounds which makes it family friendly. Along with many sport opportunities to register your kid for. Ranging from tennis to soccer to basketball.
