If you're talking parking in West Seattle just park on the street and you'll be fine. If you're talking parking in Downtown Seattle there's no such thing as cheap street parking. I guess you could park like 2 miles away and walk where you need to go but at that point why even bother doing that instead of busing it?
I live off California Ave in West Seattle near the Zeek's Pizza and it's a pretty nice area. If you go about 10 minutes south you start to hit the lower cost places but it's still relatively safe.
If you don't want your car broken into just never leave anything of value visible. Cars with alarms don't get targeted anywhere near as much as cars without them. Thieves in the area are pretty smart I've gotta hand that to them at least because they typically target cars with no alarms that have gym/shopping bags sitting in plain sight.

then thing with the 6-800 dollar apodments, which is really just like a hotel room with a kitchenette (microwave and bar fridge) is that they are low income housing and you have to make less than 40k a year. you'll have to find the ones that go for closer to a grand if you make more money.
