I'm looking at two townhouses, one on Talbot Hill (Renton), one in West Seattle - both essentially the same price rent (two arms and two legs), 1300 sq ft vs 1060 sq ft. WSeattle will be closer to the office, thus lower commuting cost, and "more trendy". Talbot Hill is a larger place, I get one more room, but further from the office, and from the satellite maps - the suburbs.

Any TE thoughts?? I'm looking at the Talbot Hill place tomorrow afternoon after work. Don't have an appointment to see the W Seattle place yet.

I don't have to make an immediate housing choice - I could let these pass by, but do need to find a place in the next month.
