I moved from Phoenix to Port Orchard over a year ago. It is a great place to live ! I find it to be a nice mix of rural yet accessible since it is the county seat the infrastructure is good. The downtown is nice and people are generally nice overall, in the winter everyone doesn’t want to talk but summers is amazing. The parks and schools are good for the area and the outdoors is one of the best concentrations of everything you can find. We haven’t even left kitsap and haven’t seen every amazing outdoor nature trail and state park. DM for any questions but overall it’s a good little town that’s close to most things
