anybody live in Silver Firs? (commute question)

Hi! My H and I are thinking about moving to the Silver Firs area and I'm wondering about traffic in the mornings, as you head towards I-5. I would actually only need to go as far as the park and ride because I take the bus to work. Does anybody live out that way? How do you like it?

Re: anybody live in Silver Firs? (commute question)

  • i don't live in silver firs, but i live near mill creek (other side of 164th). i deal with NO traffic, but that's because i leave for work at 4:40am and i go north to everett locally on 99. if you're talking about a south-commute, at a "normal" time, 164th can get backed up..but it's not too bad....after work (4-7pm), avoid 164th at all costs. if you're closer to 128th, that one is better.. seattlehill and mill creek rd can get a little backed up too, so if you can take 35th, to 132nd, to 128th, that's better....

    there's a lot of options in that area.

  • I would seriously hate commuting from there! If you leave uber early it's fine. I used to live in Mill Creek and commute to South Seattle, it SUCKED donkey balls!
  • I don't live out there, but I have some friends that do and they don't complain about their commute. My guess is it would take about 15 to 20 minutes to get to the park and ride. With all those lights in there you would have to go through it can really back up trying to get to I5.

  • There is a bus that goes straight from the neighborhood to the park-n-ride.
