Why Live in West Fife

West Fife, a neighborhood characterized by its industrial surroundings, offers a unique blend of residential and commercial areas. The neighborhood is primarily known for its warehouses, truck stops, and wholesale retailers, but hidden behind these are clusters of homes, mostly built between the 1940s and 1950s. These homes include ranches and smaller cottages, with a newer development of contemporary Craftsman single-family homes and townhouses near the Puyallup River. Residents benefit from the Pierce Transit System, which provides bus routes to downtown Tacoma and Seattle, although many find it more convenient to travel by car via the I-5. Local amenities include the Poodle Dog Restaurant, a retro diner with a long history, and Emish Market for groceries, located about a mile east of the neighborhood. While green spaces are limited, Dacca Park offers sports fields and the Fife History Museum, and the Hylebos Wildlife Trail and Levee Trail provide scenic walking and jogging paths. The neighborhood is served by the Fife School District, with highly rated schools such as Discovery Primary School and Fife High School. Despite its industrial feel, West Fife hosts community events like the annual car show at the Fife History Museum and summer Movies in the Park. The area faces challenges related to homelessness, with ongoing efforts to address the issue.
