I was in the Seattle area for about 10 years and recently moved to the east coast.
I don’t recommend Seattle. Skyrocketing cost of living, increasing homelessness, and progressive politics that are real communism with local politicians saying we should nationalize Boeing and Amazon.
Did I mention crime? It used to be petty crime, break ins in vehicles, property damage, that kind of stuff.
Downtown Seattle is not safe for a woman to be alone, and especially not an Asian woman. There are several recent cases of Asian woman getting sucker punched or beaten with a bat at rail stations or public transit stops.
The city looks the other ways. Criminals get locked up overnight if at all and get let go the next day. When you add on to this the insane real estate costs and rising rents, it makes zero sense to live in Seattle.
