I think the best thing about Seattle is the fresh air. It's amazing. I'm not into looking at mountains but some are. Freshwater swimming is so nice.
If you are tech, it's one of the places to be. Programming machine learning rakes 600k if u are the worst one. If you are not, ull battle an inferiority comparison.
The topography is weird. Small amount of land squished in hills mountains. That's why real estate is inflated. It's a pain getting around with awful mass transit. And really few "it" places to truly go. So, it's a small town feel but honestly crowded.
I find that amount of rain to be frustrating. It's not as hard as most think but drags.
People are nice and love fitness community. Soccer is adored. Easy drugs in nearby Vancouver. Strangely, not the most intellectually challenging place.
