The Interurban Railway, which started running in 1902 and connected Seattle to Tacoma, was instrumental in Pacific's early growth. While it isn't running anymore, its importance to Pacific and the surrounding region can still be felt today.
As the locals in Pacific will tell you, Pacific is not a part of Auburn. Don't get that wrong! Home to 6,606 people, this small city is a mere 15 miles from Tacoma and 28 miles from Seattle. It may not have the shiny lights or grunge music that Seattle offers, but it does still jam. And you can still blast Nirvana on the radio. Anyway, this friendly community has what you need: proximity to parks and waterways, nearby dining and nightlife, and a laid-back living environment. You won't feel stressed in Pacific. The city is, after all, a true Pacific Northwest town. You even get classic views of Mount Rainier. See more
Scoring an apartment with hardwood floors can be a big win for Pacific renters. They`re typically a beautiful addition to your space. They’re also easier to clean and sweep, particularly if you have pets.
However, there are some downsides. Hardwood floors carry sounds. They can also make your apartment noisy for your roommates and downstairs neighbors.
Ask the landlord or property manager about the hardwood floors before signing a lease. Are they actually hardwood or a popular composite alternative? The latter is probably easier to clean and care for than the real thing.
It’s also important to ask about who’s responsible for any damage to the floors and what that entails. Your security deposit could take a hit from scratches, dents, and other damage.
Consider the type of climate you live in. Hardwood floors typically don’t fare well in damp climates full of moisture. Stains and buckling are common in hardwood floors after rain flooding or excessive moisture.
However, hardwood floors can be ideal for dry climates or sunny areas for renters who love the way they look.
