And Seattle isn't really crazy anymore. It's a big dot-com city.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
To some extent, Seattle remains a frontier metropolis, a place where people can experiment with their lives, and change and grow and make things happen.
Seattle is still more Caucasian than most medium-sized cities. The sort of psychosexual politics of white fandom in context of black athletes who are also both very rich and slightly angry is just, to me, bottomlessly fascinating.
Seattle is very similar to Minneapolis. I like the culture; I like the people. I raced a bike and won a national championship on Lake Washington in 1977, so I've had a connection there for a long time.
So when we finally settled down outside of Seattle I felt totally uncomfortable with that idea.
I grew up in Seattle, but I always knew I wanted to leave.
Seattle has shaped me in a lot of ways.
I can't say anything I don't love about Seattle.
I think it's evident that expensive neighborhoods in Seattle are surrounded by natural beauty. That elevates city life. So if we can make cities more attractive in the long run, we can be smarter about issues like development, zoning and economics.
Seattle is like a global gumbo, a melting pot with all kinds of people - the rich, the poor, white people, some Chinese, Filipino, Jewish and black people - they're all here.
I love downtown Seattle. It's a city that has all of the outdoor activities and is still a very cosmopolitan city.
