I am living here for college. This city is awesome. There are so many diverse food options! If money isn't an issue, you'll never have to eat the same thing twice. The city gives a great sense of community and unity in support of diversity. Seattle is a very environmentally conscious and green city, and the vibrancy of the flora and fauna are stunning. It supports a healthy lifestyle with many biking trails and lanes, great paths for running, and wonderful fresh markets with lots of healthy, balanced foods. If you go to the right grocery stores, the prices are reasonable. It is like most cities- expensive- but has a high minimum wage.

I love Seattle, it's home! I like how open Seattle is there, is a sense to be your own person and tell your own truth in Seattle and I really like that. Seattle is also an advocate for liberal rights, for example, LGBT rights, appreciating the environment, and animals. Lastly, as a rower, I love the how much water is out here you are never more than 5 miles away from a body of water here. What I would like to see improvement on is there not being a passive-aggressive judgment on ideas that are different. As much as Washington culture embraces people to be open, if you disagree with someone's opinion you are treated harshly, not with an open mind. Also, racism is still very present here it just not blunt and in your face. It breaks my heart that a city so nice and open are still closed minded in so many ways.
