Everett, WA

I've lived in the Seattle area for 11 years. It's very diverse, as there are many different races/cultures. However, if you are a person of color that is looking for a mate/companion of your same race; do not move to Seattle. I've have had NO luck in finding a mate of my race (African American). People of color in Seattle tend to date/marry someone of a different race.
