The neighborhoods around the waterfront are nice, but Burien is a big area and an airport suburb. Do your research thoroughly.

Great food in the small downtown center. It’s really walkable in the central business district and a lot of community activities. There are pockets of homeless and visible drug activities on the arterials. It surely is not bougie, more like a small town vibe but gentrifying rapidly.

It’s definitely a suburb and not the nicest overall also doesn’t have any like city vibes/downtown area

Don’t

Burien is a city, not a neighborhood…

My in laws live there and it can be sketchy, it would not be my choice. West Seattle is a little more $$$ but a lot nicer imo
