Hello,
I am currently living in Chicago. My 2 1/2 year old son and I are planning on relocating to Vancouver, Wa. next month. I was offered a job selling insurance with my Aunt.
I have been researching apartments. I'm looking for something cute, great scenery, and safe for my son and I. And it needs to be affortable. I heard downtown Va. is nice.

I also am looking for a part time job while I am getting certified, and a babysitter for my son.

I know this is a lot, but thought someone could give me some ideas...

I can't wait to move, it looks beautiful!!

Thanks in advance. Everyone on this site seems so nice and helpful, love this site!

hi ashley.

Here's the link to the local Craigslist listings for the Vancouver area rentals. It's a place to start.

http://portland.craigslist.org/clk/apa/

I'm not real familiar with the Vancouver/Portland area so I'll be waiting with you to see how others reply who are more knowledgeable with the area.

Good luck and good fortune to ya!


Thanks.

edit: I just noticed that there are two other recent threads down the page a bit. Take a look at those. *laughs* ...there was even a discussion about watching out for your kneecaps if you live too close to Tonya Harding!

She lives in Yacolt. Just avoid that area. It's pretty rural, so it shouldn't be that difficult.

Our local newspaper, The Columbian, has a website, you might find some helpful info there. 2 bedroom apts, nice areas start at about $650.00. My daughter lives in a 2 bedroom, 2 bath, complex. Pet friendly w/pool & clubhouse in the Cascade Park area for $685.00, lots of daycare available in the area to. Hope this helps!
