Lived in Tacoma for over 10 years, E.T. lived there over 20. I loved the waterfront, parts of downtown, the Glass Museum, Art Museum and galleries. It is accessible to great places like Long Beach, Ocean Shores, even down to Oregon beach areas.
I did not like the traffic, the I-5 is a nightmare most of the time, and I dont care for the crowd thing. Seattle is fun, but impossible to park in and the traffic there is insane. Cost of living is higher in Seattle, but gets better the further away you go! I'm not a fan of Eastern WA. I do miss Commencemnet Bay, Point Defiance, and the Glass Museum.

I have never been as an adult, well not really.

I can't wait to get a passport and come and visit Seattle. It will be a good time I am sure.

I have lived in Washington State all my life. In the central area. Seattle is a bit busy for me. BUT, I have lots of friends who live there and love it. Central Washington gets more snow and colder weather than Seattle. I do however love the rain and wetter weather of the Seattle area.
I am told there are a lot of work opportunities in that area. As far as lower cost of living? It isn't much lower than California. On the BONUS side it is one of the more popular areas for same sex households and I am told it has a lot of clubs.

My oldest and dearest friend, Maidi!!

Also, the musiums in both Seattle (Music expression is amazing) and Tacoma (Glass Art Musium there is phenomenal). Can't beat WA for outdoors activities.

There is a fairly large B-F contingent in Seattle and queer partner dance community. Also,

The Longview area is quite nice and I love Vancouver. If I did not have severe arthritis and fibro, I would have moved to WA a long time ago. It also has some of the best school districts in the US as well as the U of W is a fine educational institution and ranks above many state university systems. Also a very progressive community college system that actually does what community college are mean't to do.

I know a few people in tech fields that obviously have found fantastic employment in WA as well. As a state, it also has a decent state health insurance program. It beats CA all to hell in that as well as education. Sorry to say since I was born, raised, educated and teach in CA.

Can't leave out the WNBA SEATTLE STORM!!
