What are the top five things you need to know about living in East Tacoma? Abode broker Melo Hogan lives there, and she answers like a neighbor, not a brochure.She starts with the people — the kind of neighbors who'll strike up a conversation with someone they just met. Then the small businesses around McKinley Hill: Dusty's Hideaway, the Filipino-Latin fusion spot El Lechon Loco, and a Mexican market pop-up off East 72nd where she went for elotes and came home with a puppy. Reason four is the one commuters care about: 38th Street gets you downtown, Portland Avenue gets you onto I-5 north, and the Amtrak and Sounder at the Tacoma Dome are about five minutes away, depending on where you live. Reason five is how her family spends its time — volunteering at Eloise's Cooking Pot food bank and the community center off Portland Avenue, something they've done since 2015.Then the story underneath it. Melo came to the US from the Philippines, landed in California, and found her way to East Tacoma — and after most of her adult life there, it's home. Dave and Melo get into why Tacoma still feels like a small town even as it grows, and the episode closes with a rapid-fire round: Practical Magic 2, empanadas from El Parche, a hot take about puppies, and the finger rule for perfect rice.For anyone moving to Tacoma or Pierce County, buyers comparing neighborhoods, and locals who already know.MEET THE GUESTMelo Hogan — Broker, Windermere Abode
