WTF the white house isn't in washington?

>>65738451
top meme my friend

but trust me, as a resident of Washington state, it's completely fucking annoying that 99% of people refer to Washington DC as "Washington"

>>65738476
At least you have american citizenship.

>>65738476
washington = washington, dc
washington state = washington state

>>65738476
Maybe it's a west coast thing as I never heard of this.

We just call it D.C without Washington.

get good at programming and come work for some tech company here in WA f-a-m.

they'll get you a green card easy, they do it for Russians and Indians

There's a decent amount of Poles in Seattle. Not Chicago level or anything though.

being the home of Bill Gates, Starbucks, Amazon, Boeing, and the volcanic eruption in the 80s that shook houses 4 hours away and killed that one photographer who cover his film with his body to save it

Was considering clackamas because of the weather, but maybe I'll stay over here if its really that bad. maybe maine has an environmental equivalent to the clack

hears rent rates in portland fell by .1%, so things may be looking up

Puget Sound area is literally THE most perfect place to have a house.
>rarely gets above 80, not as hot as Portland
>rarely any snow
>green forests and large mountain ranges in every direction
Nothing beats the climate here.

It will start to be better when the light rail systems are finished and people start using them (hopefully.)

right now though the Seattle area all the way down to Tacoma is miserable. Too many people, too much traffic and mostly foreigners. Then Seattle is jam packed too.

fucking hate it. I wish the weather and high property taxes/value would deter people like it used too, but after the recession housing was cheap and everyone moved here.

I have a friend who lives almost two hours away from Seattle and his job employs illegal Mexicans.

I don't live in Seattle so I don't really deal with the biggest influx of other-state-immigrants, but I fucking love it here man.

>beautiful nature (forests, mountains, lakes, ocean coasts, more desert-y shit in the east, canyons, gorges, rivers, etc etc)
>big businesses and strong economy (Microsoft, Boeing, Starbucks, Weyerhauser, T Mobile, Expedia, Amazon, Costco, the list goes on and on)
>legal weed
>low crime
>great food, a lot top tier asian food and shit
>regional pride (cascadia)
>good sports support (>inb4 le Xhecucks XDXDXD)
>literally any activity you want to do, you can do (skiing, hiking, camping, hunting, good local music, very politically active, ocean related shit, etc etc ect)

People in Seattle and Portland get super butthurt about it because rent is getting more expensive there, but if you can move to any part of this map that is blue, then do it. I guarantee it's better than anywhere in the country, and tied with Minnesota and New England.

Oh... yeah I would never live in Seattle. It just sounds awful from everything I hear. If I do decide to move out I would not live in the big cities, and probably not in Washington.

>>65738711
Yeah, my parents were thinking of living there but decided on the east coast. They still remember how untouched the nature was. I guess I just hate living in Megacity 1. I was thinking of living in the blue circle areas since they're less popular... still not sure though. If it is a lot like New England maybe I'll just move up there.

Why the fuck Georgia isn't in the US?

>>65738765
I know those feels washington bro

>>65738765
Whats so bad about Monte? I live there right now oddly enough. Elma and of course Aberdeen are much much worse. Elma especially

>>65738798
You should move to mason county, specifically the western side of it. not too far from civilization but it's literally peace and quiet rural country.

>>65738936
I don't know about that man, aberdeen is a pretty big shithole.

>>65738936

I was mostly memeing but Montesano always seemed just really sad to me, mildly rundown and sort of a dead end, like a small town that kinda missed out on some of the charm that other cities like Poulsbo have.

>>65738798
I don't know if i'd say it's "a lot like New England" but it's similar in high education, low levels of crime, and overall standard of living. The PNW definitely takes the edge with regards to the natural resources and biodiversity, and I don't think even they would argue that

>>65738451
Lol! So cutely! Next you'll be telling me that Canada City isn't the capital of Canada!! I mean like I know right!?!?!?

>>65739077
Well your right about that. It's pretty much a dead end. All of Gray's Harbor really. And if your here for too long your here for life.

>>65738476
washington is the name of the city, not washington, DC

(ps UW refers to the university of wisconsin)

>>65739019
Thanks for the tips guys. If I move out I'll def try to aid the PNW community
