I have been to Seattle more times than I can count. I live in Montana, but was in Seattle frequently when I was in middle school. This place is FANTASTIC. I have seen Seattle’s best and Seattle’s worst. The way people talk about this city while having not been here frequently is mind boggling to me. Great public transport options, great food, bunch of stuff in walking distance. In 2022 I visited twice and the city was rough and dirty compared to how I knew Seattle, in early 24 I came back and it was even worse. I came back in August of 24 and the cleanup was astounding, they have truly put a bunch of effort into fixing things here. I hear people from Spokane talking shit on this city, and they need to take a look around at their own city. I can walk around downtown at night and not feel unsafe at all, wouldn’t attempt that shit in Spokane lmao. There is so much culture and cool stuff in this city, I simply cannot find it in myself to talk bad about it. If I could afford to live here, I would, great city, great people
