drdetroit Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 Because the Pacific Northwest is the best part of the country to live in hands down. Weed is legal, robust economy, great scenery, gorgeous women, outdoor activities but you still have access to great cities like Seattle, Portland and Vancouver, BC, instead of the Jets you have the Seattle Seahawks.

I loved living in Seattle outside of the taxes, stripclubs (they suck, SFlorida is way better), wantabe hippies, liberals and gun laws. Great food, music, weather (yes weather), nightlife, geography and sh*t. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
