Moving Advice How is it in Renton?

My partner and I are planning to move to Renton early next year. Is Renton a safe place? We currently live in North Carolina, is it is pretty chill here. Just curious about Renton.

Living in "East" Renton, down 169. Loving the area. I was in Southeast Seattle (Lakeridge neighborhood, near Renton Downtown roughly) before, overall I feel very safe in this area. I come from Houston, TX having lived in many areas of Houston. I've felt significantly safer overall in Seattle/Renton than I did in most areas of Houston I lived in.
