Unfortunately a lot of the cheapest farther out places will have drug issues, so you either pay higher to live in the city or suburbs and deal with that type of crime, or out in the Trump areas with drug problems.

Safe is a relative term.

Also depends on where you want to live.

Personally some of my favorites are Bremerton/Port Orchard, Anacortes, Ocean Shores area, Wenatchee, Leavenworth, Poulsbo, Snoqualmie, Olympia/Lacey/Tumwater
