Hi Belinda- Welcome to the neighborhood! I grew up in Fairwood Greens, now I own two Renton properties & would highly recommend Renton over Kent- except the Star Lake/Thomas Jefferson commute, you'll be dealing with 167 from either city- but Kent *is* closer to Federal Way, so that may be your best bet... Either way- check out your neighborhood carefully, I think nowadays it's not so much the area you live as the actual neighbors you live next to that determines the "feel" of your new home... Best of luck!
