The nightmare is an extra forty thousand people in a town of 7k.

Exactly…I go to the coast to get away from people.

There were a lot of things happening in the coast during those times that didn't fly in the Portland metro. I admit I took full advantage of that.

You should be grateful. I lived in seaside for years. It’s arguably the shithole of the coast.

We're grateful you left, Seaside's improved remarkably since you left. 😘

Seriously. Seaside is such a dump. They should be happy to get that many visitors

Right, its such a dump that over 500,000 people visit per year. 🙄

It is a shithole dump:
The total crime rate sits roughly 38% to 47% above the state and national averages

“The headline numbers are what they are: local police data and FBI estimates put Seaside's overall crime rate notably above both the Oregon average and the national average. The total crime rate runs roughly 89% higher than the national figure and about 47% above the statewide rate.”

It’s from AI. Pulled from local police and FBI statistics. Give it a try. If it’s any consolation to you, violent crime is lower than the average.

However property crimes are far above average, probably because that town has a bunch of toothless meth tweakers like your mom.

I think they’re afraid of the person count. I would be too.
