I've driven though PA. It's not like that's the pinnacle of living either. If you don't like Bruce Springstein, you're radio choices are nil

it rains a lot here man. Its a nice place, scenerys great, lots to do in my opinion. Plenty of places to go out n have a drink or get together with your friends. Indoor/outdoor, rivers, mountains, small ****ty beaches, monuments, attractions, places to take pictures at car meets , theres coffee everywhere around here and lots of hipsters in certain parts of seattle but its pretty chill in all the suburbs around seattle.

I've lived on the East Coast, traveled across the country on numerous college road trippy goodness. Lived in Jamaica, Indonesia, The PILLiPEEnz, (canda...brief brief briefly hahaah jk...but I did) and have traveled around the globe twice hitting many many cities and I have chosen to live in Seattle. It's a great mix of "small city" feel with all the "big city" attractions. The surrounding roads/scenery are epic fun and you can go from beach to mountain in a few hours (or less). The people in general are great, if a bit Lib for my tastes. Always something to do, and interesting and "artsy fartsy" people to meet. Also you can meet Joe if ya move here

HA Seattle supported and Joe burned all in the same thread...oh I'm gooooood. I'm like Kelso good!

OOoh yah the roads/scenery are amazing here. Whether its blue sky or not some of our mountain roads/valley roads, are very fun to cruise.

Also our sports teams aren't the best but somehow we have a huge following for the Seahawks haha its weird that Qwest field gets packed all season...

Funny reading this thread. For the last few months Ive been reading about Seattle a lot. I know job wise its listed as low unemployment % and seems like a good place to start over.Would be cool to visit and see all the clubs Alice in Chains used to play and I hear there is a lot of Japanese women, highest in country I believe. You guys have tracks out there too?
