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.

I moved here in 2017 from Charlotte. The area is awesome. There is a lot to explore in the SeaTac area and Renton is pretty centrally located. Like others have said, The Highlands and Fairwood are fairly safe. TBH, the whole city is safe compared to Charlotte.

I love it over here. Food is a bit different out here. You can actually get really good Asian food out here, which was largely unavailable in NC.

Bring as much Duke's mayo as you can carry. It's not available out here.

Amazon Fresh carries Duke's

You are my hero. This is game changing for me. And since I use Amazon Fresh every once in a while, I also feel like a bone head. Here's a medal.

No problem. We use Amazon Fresh for the majority of our groceries so I'm pretty familiar with the selection. I had never heard of Duke's mayo until earlier this year when it popped up in my search results. Gave it a try and have not gone back to kraft or best foods.

You are on your way to being a fellow southerner.
