What I like most about SeaTac is its diversity and affordability. Compared to the other suburbs around Seattle, you would typically need to spend much more, or live much farther to get this location and price. Being close to the airport is convenient, and there are all kinds of people living there. I find people in SeaTac are pretty nice and easygoing compared to the city proper, and with the proximity to the Westfield mall adds some decent shopping to the mix.
The only thing missing is more kinds of work as most of the nearby jobs are airport or service industry related. But personally, I like working in Seattle but being able to leave and catch my breath at the end of the day!

Seatac is probably one of the most diverse cities in Washington state. The city is very diverse and has very good schools as well, being the neighboring city of Burien, where the central office for Highline Public Schools is. The neighbors are extremely nice and welcoming!
Great community hidden next to the airport and light rail. Wonderful restaurants and lovely parks. Best thing about SeaTac is how it is so close to so many other local cities. Burien, Des Moines, Tukwila, Kent are all just a short drive away. I moved here a few years ago after living throughout the Seattle and Tacoma area and have found that SeaTac is a hidden gem. I live right next to a lake in a home that easily would be 5x more expensive in Seattle.
