Current Resident: What I like about Tacoma, Washington is the access to a nearby park. Every neighborhood had its own park for the community to enjoy.
The City of Tacoma has different bodies of water to get to. There is the strait of the Tacoma Narrows off of the Point Defiance Park, rivers, creeks and streams to get away to.
Tacoma also has many educational institutions to attend within a twenty-minute drive such as, Bates Technical College, Clover Park Technical College, Pierce College, Tacoma Community College, Puget Sound University, Pacific Lutheran University, University of Washington, and other schools.
What can be improved about Tacoma are the many potholes that wears out the tires of the automobiles. The truck track adds to the wear and tear of the streets.
Another improvement for City of Tacoma is the cost of housing. Many young adults are living with their parents these days, because studio apartments start at least $1,000 a month, which does not include utilities.... Read 494 reviews
