I think the difference is "Seattle" vs "Seattle area." Google says that Seattle has a population of ~725k. Let's say that half of them are working. 725k * 50%

Google says that Seattle has a population of ~725k. Let's say that half of them are working. 725k * 50% * 15% ~= 54k.
54k Amazon employees in the city limits sounds at least in the ballpark.
- WalterBright 8y agoThe "Seattle area" includes Bellevue, Tacoma, etc., which about triples the number of people.
