Top 10 Reasons NOT to Move to Seattle, Washington

The Top 10 reasons You Should NOT move to Seattle, Washington and the worst things you NEED to know about moving to Tacoma or Spokane instead

What's it like living in Seattle? Well first off, it's almost always raining and it's located on an isthmus between the beautiful Pudget Sound and Lake Washington. The weather here is pretty temperate, but it is overcast and cloudy for 9 months out of the year. In contrast, it's actually really nice in the Summer. It's actually the largest city in Washington, and along with Spokane, Tacoma, Portland, and other Pacific Northwest towns, one of the best cities to live in America. A lot of people are moving from California and all over to the Emerald City, making it one of the fastest growing and most expensive cities in the United States. If the Evergreen State has the best economy with lots of tech jobs, why shouldn't you live in Seattle, WA?

FYI: “Puget” = “Pew + jet” and “Rainier” = “Rain + ear”. This guy’s definitely NOT from Seattle

[ethanfroula]

Just moved out of Seattle a couple of years ago. The rain ain’t that bad, but homelessness, traffic and the cost of living is outrageous

[vice_santos]

am i the only one who loves grey skies and rain??? it makes me so happy :D

[imperator]

I'm born and raised in Seattle and a lot of what he says is true, though there are a lot of things he got wrong. However the grey skies, rainy days, or the foggy mornings make me feel nostalgic about my childhood and teenage years there. If you're local you'll probably get what I mean, its all I knew and I loved it. I miss Seattle but I'm sad to see it's problems, I really hope Seattle can come through it's issues.

"pudget sound" boi you could actually look up the pronunciation if you don't live here

[julianhecker]

“nasty traffic, impossible parking, tons of homelessness, everything’s expensive”
Me: **Laughs in New Yorker**

[redzoneguy]

People in Seattle are actually very friendly, they’re just don’t wanna be your friends.

[feardrinker]

I live near Seattle.
1. It's really, really expensive. Housing costs are out of control.
2. They never installed a subway.

lol "seattle is clean" you obviously dont live here.

[f.d.]

"Seattle has some of the worst drivers in the country"
Me, a Floridian: you have no idea.

[adamgronvold]

Your comment on rush hour in Seattle is very generous. Rush hour starts at 5AM and ends around 7 or 8PM.

Here's one reason:

TOO. DAMN. EXPENSIVE.

I had to quit after "Pudgit" Sound.

[halcynical]

"Seattle is clean"

Lmao it's so obvious that you don't live here at all

[minadarabikalkenari]

I lived in Seattle for 11 years. And I love going back there again. Maybe state of Washington has a lot of problems, but it has so many precious things to be found nowhere. Miss you Seattle.

[Mirmir.]

Puget Sound is pronounced “pew-jet”, not “poo-jet”. And Rainier is “rain-ear”, not rain-err.
And also, umbrellas are for wimps. (👈🏼 this is a joke BTW, for those who can’t interpret sarcasm).

[charlesm]

Excuse me, did he just say “PUJET SOUND” lmao

It’s PUGET SOUND

[elijah.]

"Pudget sound" lmao. It's "pew-jet".
"Mount rainer" - it's "mount rain-eeeer". thx.

[KLewisChef]

“Pudget sound” “mt rain-her” at least investigate pronunciations before you take the time to make a video if you’re not from here. I’m curious to see now, how he pronounces Puyallup lol
