One of the ladies in my carpool used to live in Fife. Hated it. There may be exceptions of course, but she said Fife seemed like nothing but concrete and asphalt --- strip malls, car lots, and freeway. A lot of Tacoma's crime problems bleed off into Fife.
I don't blame you for wanting to leave Federal Way. That's where I'm at now, and I hate it.
If I were wanting to stay in the area, I'd probably check places like Gig Harbor, Enumclaw, Black Diamond, etc., but that's going to put you farther away from Tacoma. Still, once the Narrows Bridge is done, Gig Harbor might not be such a bad drive. However, once the bridge is done, I fear that a lot of Tacoma's problems are going to migrate into Gig Harbor.
