Happy Sunday!!! I hope you enjoyed this video. If I forgot anything, please comment down below what are your favorite parts of living in Seattle! 😁
Also, a few corrections to the video:
1. the Space Needle is a Futurist building not Modernist (I didn't correct myself)
2. I pronounced le parisienne wrong (hope you didn't notice haha)
Didn’t notice haha
In addition to Seattle having a great public transportation system, let's give a shout out as to how much of a walk-able city Seattle is, as well! My bf and I love walking to the grocery store (we have 5 within an 8 minute walk!) , many coffee shops, delicious restaurants, bakeries, the library, post office, shopping, etc.
It really is! You can easily walk all the way from Little Saigon to Pike Place to the Space Needle and you’d still have most of the day left.
If you think Seattle has a good public transportation, you’ve never been to Europe. European cities have a great transportation, American cities could never
@@ucouldnev haha true!
@@ucouldnev same with Canada. It sucks up here.
@@ucouldnev We have low standards for public transportation in the US for sureee. And to think most cities are way worse than Seattle. I live in Texas and it's pretty pathetic in the big cities here.
I absolutely love living here, although my family has owned properties here and nice the 1910's, I've only lives here by myself for 7 years now and loved every minute of it!
Oh wow! Your family are long time Seattle residents! And yes! Nothing can really compare to our corner of Washington state
I went to Seattle recently and I loved it! I saw the beautiful nature out and within the city limits...it was amazing. We went a couple of weeks ago and it was amazing!
Top 10 reasons NOT to move coming up :)?
Haha actually yes! I wanted to start with the positives
💓 I love every single one of those reasons. Thank you, Chris.
You're welcome!
This is so helpful Chris! I’m planning my move to Washington state and your videos have helped give me some excitement while waiting for job offers to come through. Thank you!
Glad I could help :)
Hi I like your channel also I love Seattle is so beautiful .
Sunset is amaizing .
Grettings from Utah .
💖🌸💖🌸💖🌸🤗
Thanks for joining! Aso thanks for your comment :) I appreciate it
I’ve never thought much about Seattle until I visited two months ago. It was just for one day but I loved the city (at least what I was able to see). So when I found your channel, I’m glad to know more about it!! Thank you ;)
Glad I could help!
Good reasons, that's why I like Seattle, some day I would move. Thanks Chris👌.
You're welcome! glad you enjoyed! It's a very beautiful city
I want to move now!!! I love the sunsets! so jealous
Haha it’s always here for a visit! 😊
No you don't Seattle is filthy.
There are casecade to the east and the Olympics to the west. So sunrise and sunsets are a work of art everyday
I love your video. Nice city Seattle.
It’s beautiful out here!
Thank you! Was planning to move to Seattle this week and this is a nice little intro video to remind me how cool it is to move there.
Glad you enjoyed it! :)
Any update?
@@OiVinn-eq1ml Its awesome
Love that last reason ❤️
Glad you did! 🌅
Today, unfortunately, there is a growing homeless population in Seattle. High time to devise a social system to care for these people.
Yeah, and it's only increasing. But idk why Seattle has such a high number of homeless. Compared to other major cities, it generally has more homeless than most given population size.
@@Chris_jae perhaps because it’s a big city with many people (who can potentially give more change) and the weather is warmer than the east coast. Here in Canada that’s what they did - they kicked out the homeless from other provinces with terrible weather to Vancouver and now we have East Hastings homeless crisis.
I’ll make a change.
Considering moving here. I can't drive due to disability. Will that limit in stuff u can do. I will my bachelors in cyber security by this point
The place to be is a suburb AROUND Seattle.
The city itself is congested and expensive. Most apartment rentals charge $100-250/month just to park your car.
Redmond and Bellevue are gorgeous, but also super expensive. Sometimes more than Seattle. A lot of apartment buildings aren't upgraded.
Kent and Renton have good and bad areas. Imo it's the cheapest place, and there are very nice gated communities that are absolutely picturesque. No paying for parking where you live or want to go.
Late August/mid September is wildfire season. That's the WORST time to visit.
Seattle's surrounding mountains are stunning in a while that pictures and videos could never capture. SO many waterfalls.
The year-round greenery and ferns.
Medieval village in Carnation is my favorite spot in the Seattle area.
Thanks for your comment. This is helpful. Also I definitely need to visit Carnation!
I am hearing you, but there is a reason they charge premium prices for parking... They don't want more cars in the city. It sounds like Seattle isn't that hard to live in car free.
Which is most beautiful mountain town …Leavenworth?
Yea! It’s extra beautiful in the fall and winter
Come to Daybreak star on July 15-17 pow wow. Muckleshoot has a stick game every Easter and a free salmon and crab feed on Sunday. June 10-12 Muckleshoot has the best pow wow near the Muckleshoot health and wellness. Saturday night at 7pm to midnight is the best. Awesome food. Adults dancing fireworks going off in the back. Illegal fireworks stands all over. Stommish days in Lummi. CZcams it is actual canoe races. There are days you can pick 5 clams off the beach. We have the best salmon. There’s fishing hunting gather. This area is filled with fruits berries and natural medicine. Ice caves from glacier that are still retreating. Then let’s not for get the orcas, whales.
All those sound exciting! And the food sounds really good! I’ll definitely check out the June pow wow. It sounds like a great weekend. If you don’t mind, can I pin your comment to the top of this video so others can see?
@@Chris_jae of course all native gatherings are open to public. Just follow what everyone else is doing. Bring you own lawn chair or there are bleachers. Please do not sit in front as those people put their chairs up 5 days in advance. You can go right up to drums and record them. If not on dance floor please ask before taking pictures. You will have sooo much fun. Stop by the fire work stands by the casino. It is legal to let them off there. Charlie and Bird stand is my favorite.
Did you attend the muckleshoot pow wow this last weekend?
I did! I went saturday and thoroughly enjoyed it! Thanks for the recommendation :)
@@Chris_jae stommish June 27 this year. Omg best canoe races in Washington. Small pow wow and stick games. If you have kids there is a small carnival. Salmon over the fire pit is a must. 😋😋😋
Hey I want to move out seattle but I don't know nobody there
No state income tax but has the highest gas tax in the nation.
Yeah, they get you in other ways. The sales tax is also pretty high. At least we’re not at $7 yet like California
What about safety in Seattle. Is it a big issue there?
Yes and no. Like any city I would never recommend waking around by yourself at night. Most of the city is safe, but I would avoid 3rd avenue when possible. Otherwise it’s safer than larger cities. We don’t have as much gang issues, but we do have a homeless and drug problem. I’ve so far only had good experiences but I know those who have stories to tell
We visited Seattle and Bellevue over the Christmas holiday this year, and our friends who live in Bellevue highly recommended us not to go to downtown Seattle at all. But when I was visiting Seattle in June, I didn't have any issues there so I was kind of surprised hearing their warnings.
That might be because there are much less tourists in the area. So the ratio of tourists to homeless isn't as good. In general during the day it's fine. I walk downtown most weekends and haven't had any issues so far. Although I don't go out alone at night. They might have also been a little more cautious because Bellevue is a very safe area. It's probably one of the best areas in the country. I guess to compare, I would walk in Bellevue alone at night, but wouldn't walk around Seattle alone at night
@@Chris_jae got it. Thank you for update
Aaah th wonky one that matters
Super high prices and crime and homelessness
I also made a video after this one that talks about the top 10 reasons to not move. It covers some of that stuff
Do you own car?
Move here right before the BLM protest, it literally went to shit quickly. Try to avoid visiting or moving to Seattle, Tacoma and Everett. Anything outside of those cities it's very beautiful
Oh wow, even Everett? I thought it was mostly Boeing employees up there
TOP 200 REASONS to AVOID Seattle.
Haha I did make a top 10 reasons to not move. Top 200 would force me to get really into the details haha
@@Chris_jae just name all of the city Councils, police chief, school district superintendent, mayors, and governor that would cover 100 reasons.. 😆
@@misterle7026 haha that’ll do! The city council is the worst. I watched one video of them ignoring a citizen talking and that was all I needed to see
Shhh…. You two realize you’re backwardly giving away the truth. The standard line is ‘It rains in Seattle 24x7x365. Stay away. You’d really hate it.” If that’s all we have to complain .. it’s heaven.
It’s a pit of homeless and rich liberals.
Don’t move here trust it ain’t all that and way to expensive 🤦🏾♀️born and raised here
I know this video can be a bit misleading. I also made a 10 reasons to not move the week after to balance the good and bad (although both are from my perspective but I think the top 10 reasons not to move in general covers 3-4 things each person can agree on)
Sorry you couldn’t make it here. Not for everyone. I was extremely low income but with so much help I was able to pay my bills. Not only was I born and raised here my people have always been here. I do believe it’s all that. Maybe you just haven’t explored all that my land has to offer.
Wow Seattle is named after a chief and you spoke nothing of our culture. You know nothing about this area!!!! What do you think we are just casinos. Canoe journey every year lands on alki. The art the pow wows the stick games the food is all based off our diet. Do some real research and find out who lived here first!
I’ll admit, I dropped the ball there. The puget sound has such an awesome indigenous history as can be seen throughout all our art, the many cultural festivals, and wood carvings throughout the city (I especially love the totem poles). I’ll make sure to call out Seattle’s culture as well (also cause most places have native names or were historic sites. Next time I’ll talk about the Suquamish and Duwamish culture. While at it, do you know of any great places to try NA food in Seattle? I’d like to feature one in a video of mine
Oh shut up
@@taylorlangley900 oh go back to where your people come from immigrant!
