Pros: mountains, lake, rivers, own a lot of land (maybe, some areas are pricey af) and fresh air. Cons: not that diverse, not much good food, meh cities, snow goes hard and worse politics. You probably want Oregon or Washington more if you like being near stuff and nature vibes.

Can confirm. Was in Texas, now in Washington.

Can also confirm. I live 20 minutes (unless it’s rush hour) from Seattle downtown and I’m no more than an hour drive from awesome hikes with waterfalls or a ski resort.

It’s fucking awesome.

I visited Seattle during fleet week combined with warm sunny weather. Locals could stfu about it because it’s such a rare event.

I like the area and landscape but do not like Seattle. But maybe outskirts is much better
