[quote=Anonymous]I've lived on the Hill since 1991. I moved there because Eastern Market was the closest I could get to something like Pike Place Market (even if not very close) and I was homesick for Seattle. And I could afford to rent (and later buy) there. The neighborhood has changed as my life has changed -- from Hill staffers living in group houses, to families with younger and now also older children. My only complaint is that the housing costs have gone up so much/so quickly that I can't afford to move out of my two-bedroom house into a slightly bigger 3-bedroom. As my child has gotten older, I have an even keener appreciation for the level of density and mass transport access -- my kid can walk places on her own and have a level of independence that she couldn't have in a car-dependent neighborhood, Your needs might be different.[/quote]
