Review of Seattle, Washington


Boy, If I Had It To Do All Over Again, I Wouldn't
Star Rating - 3/22/2010
Don't Walk! Run! Run! Run! To The Nearest Highway Entrance! I Moved My Family Here From The Mid-West Almost Twenty Years Ago. Since I Have Been Here Employment Has Been Mediocre. Rents Keep Going Up And People Are Not Friendly. It Is Really Difficult To Find A Suitable Mate Around Here, Particularly If You Are Female. All The Available Men Are Either On Drugs/Alcohol, Fresh Out Of Jail/Prison, They Are Unemployed, Have Anger/Control Problems, Their Credit Is Messed Up, Are Interested In Nothing But Playing Games, Etc. Etc. Etc.
This Is What Happens When You Read That A City (Seattle) Is Rated The Best Place To Live. It Is So Expensive Here. You Need 3-4 Roommates Working Full-time To Make Ends Meet. And It's Either Raining Or It's Cloudy All The Time. God Forbid Should It Snow Because The Entire Area Will Shut Down.
Believe Me, The Other Man's Grass Is Not Greener. If You Don't Have Much Money, Prefer Sunshine And Like Seasons, Don't Move Here.

I was there between 90 and 95 and hated it, finding it largely friendless, rude and otherwise freezing. The best thing I did was put miserable Seattle far behind me. . . .
