Yes, it's a different story in the metros that are constrained by geography. Everywhere around the urban core basically is being refurbished. All the small towns that used to sit the edge of the Seattle urban area have redone their sidewalks, added community centers etc. The homes are restored. Even working class neighborhoods have landscaping on most lots. Seattle basically has a couple areas that are considered bad and you can buy some affordable land there. Everywhere else is getting tons of private and public money dumped into it.
