MAP: IS SEATTLE’S ‘GAYBORHOOD’ VANISHG?

When out gay men and lbians moved to ndown urban neighborhoods the late '60s and early '70s, they rented apartments no one else wanted, started bs on blocks where no one else thought bs uld thrive, and had sex unr bh that no one else wanted to have sex unr. Neighborhoods like New York's East Village, San Francis's Castro, Chigo's Lake View, and Seattle's Capol Hill slowly gentrified, wh hors of gays and lbians makg the once dicey neighborhoods safe for florists, rd shops, and sex clubs. The clost most gays and lbians ever e to fdg a promised land is movg to the Gay Ghetto -- an urban neighborhood that is populated by, and reasonably tolerat, a large number of queers.

For years, first-wave gay ghettos were kept lively and relevant by a nstant stream of young queer migrants arrivg om upstate New York, downstate Illois, ral California, and eastern Washgton. And for years, young queers movg to the gay ghettos uld rely on three thgs: cheap apartments, low-payg retail jobs, and lots of other young queers wh cheap apartments and low-payg retail jobs wh whom they uld swap sp and var sexually transmted diseas.

THE STRANGER'S GUI TO THE BT GAY CLUBS, SHOPS, AND BARS SEATTLE

While 's clear that Seattle's young queers are turng away om Capol Hill, 's not clear which Seattle neighborhood will emerge as Seattle's next big gay ghetto. In orr to facilate the mass migratn of Seattle's low-e and recently arrived queer migrants, we sent three wrers to three potential new gay ghettos.

In asssg the fns of var neighborhoods for gay-ghettoizatns, we looked at four creria: Average rent for a stud apartment, potential for a gay dance club, potential public sex environment, and average age of current rints (on the theory that the olr the average rints, the faster the apartment turnover).

WEST SEATTLE Average Rent for Stud Apartment: $569 Potential Gay Dance Palace: Any empty warehoe on Wt Margal Way Potential Public Sex Environment: Lln Park Average Age of Rints: 38 s Seattle's old-guard queers tire of battlg wannab and lossal monthly rents, they are abandong the once sacred Hill by the fistful. An abundance of factors, cludg accsibily, shoppg, nightlife, reasonable rent, and at least one public park wh foliage ample enough to nceal midnight discretn all terme a neighborhood's potential as a gay ghetto. First is important to intify the number of public schools, dayre facili, nursg hom, muny centers, church, and siar tablishments that are not only of posively no e to queer people, but may even reprent a tangible threat to attag the cril mass necsary to create a tly gay ghetto.
