Nicknamed the Emerald City, Seattle is one of the fastest growing cities in the United States. Located in the northwest corner of the US in Washington State, Seattle resides along Pudget Sound.
Seattle is home to a crowd centered on culture, technology, and is one of the more Liberal cities of the United States.
One of the major traders with Japan, Seattle harbors a large amount of Asian culture which has spread into its technological areas (Boeing, Microsoft, Nintendo, etc).
Seattle has also been titled the country's video-game central. Home to both Microsoft Game Studios, half of Nintendo, and famous producers such as Bungie, Valve Software, and even the mass-popular Penny Arcade, Seattle has risen to the top in popularity among young game-pioneers. It supports massive conventions such as the Northwest Comic Con, PAX (Penny Arcade Expo), the World Cyber Games Championship, and Anime North.
Aside from its gaming success, Seattle also is home to Boeing, the world's largest aircraft manufacturer, as well as the largest building on Earth.
Other attractions Seattle has to offer is the ever-growing Pike Place Market, a cultural mainframe for the city, multiple Naval and Air Force bases, a heavy influence in politics, and a large Liberal society.

It rains a lot. It kinda sucks. Avoid pike place market, seattle center, and westlake. Tourists clog it up really bad from spring to fall.
It rains about 9 months out of the year. The rest of the year it's so hot there are forest fires galore. I was born and raised here and I'm moving to California as soon as I can afford it.
Speaking of money, it's extremely expensive to live here. The people are super unfriendly on the streets. Especially if they can tell you're not from around here. I've unfortuneately found myself doing the same thing more and more recently.
I pay over a grand a month for a small studio. The buses always make me late for work. And the drivers here are atrocious.
The lattes however will make you stay forever. And once you find your niche(if you ever do) you'll probably never leave.
If you move to Seattle, don't expect it to be grand. Good luck.

Like a city, but with white people.
Look, this bus, the streets, the monorail, the westlake mall, the hihp-hop clubs, are all filled with mostly white people (and a few white-skinned asians and bi-racials).

The whitest, most liberal city in America. Packed with smug hippies and wannabe hipsters, Seattle prides itself on its liberal politics to the extreme of ignoring any facts that may contradict the feelings that dictate this towns actions.
Corrupt elections are rigged and fixed for Democrats or the closest candidate to a socialist that can be found.
Seattleites think themselves tolerant (as long as you are a raving socialist), integrated (easy in an all-white city), and that the entire world thinks the same way they do.

Every Seattle idiot whines about the 2004 election fraud in Ohio but Seattle elections in King County "found" Democrat votes three times in cages and ballot boxes that had been certified empty three times!
A statue of Lenin graces Seattles Fremont neighborhood and should be burned to the ground.
The women are fat and cannot dress themselves.
The men are whiny, soft, and weak.

A city in the Pacific Northwest with pleasant weather (not in winter though), a picturesque skyline, and lots of outdoor activities. A good place to visit on a vacation, but can get really boring to live in unless you enjoy the outdoors, in which case its great!
Some of its most famous "land marks" though, are not that interesting. How many times can you go to the space needle? Its just a big tower, and not even the tallest in Seattle. The Pike Place market is underwhelming as well, especially now that there's always some idiot in a car trying to honk their way through the crowds.
There are plenty of other interesting sights that one could visit. The MOHAI museum is nice, along with the wetland park nearby. Don't go to the U-District, its crappy and trendy, instead go to Fremont or Ballard, they have real character.

"Seattle is so boring and there's nothing to do"
"Thats because either you live in greater Seattle or Shoreline, which ARE boring, or you just don't get out"
