Re: Living in Seattle?
I love this town for many reasons. I shake my head at this town for many reasons. It's not (yet) a live-in city, it's not enough of a transit city, it's too much of a car city. The neighborhood experience can be very different and really great. It doesn't have the midtown presence or uptown prestige of a real city, but it's easier to escape than a real city.
Seattle is not as defined as Portland is right now in the out-of-towner's eyes. But if you know what you want out of your city, or are willing to explore, Seattle has a lot to find. It takes some effort to make it great. What jitahs found doesn't have to be your experience.
