There you're not too far from Portland and Puyallup and you'll also have a fantastic farmers market.

Centralia has a farmer's market too......

If you want green try Pe Ell or Onalaska.. hahaha, I don't know about diversity and going green, but the population has gone higher then the town can hold, since they started building down by Walmart (which is more Chehalis, but right in the middle) and over by the hospital, its getting way to busy, which people hate, and people that have lived here their whole lives love the small town feel but give it 20 more years every one from big cities and other states like Cali move here, and as population goes up crime follows, but I grew up in Toledo.
