1) No state income tax
1) No state income tax

3) Seatle is close to 3 amazing national parks (Mr. Rainier, Olympic National Park, and North Cascades National Park)
4) Great job opportunites with Boeing, Microsoft, Amazon, and Google offices around
5) In 1995 it was ranked #1 as the most honest place by readers digest magazine
6) Great public transportation in the city
7) pike place fish market (they throw fish there)
8) There's a temple in Seattle, just off I-90. The Seattle Temple is also one of five temples featuring an angel Moroni statue holding the gold plates (the other temples are LA, DC, Jordan River, and Mexico City).
9) According to a Census Bureau study, Seattle tops the list of America's most educated cities, with more than half its population 25 years and older holding at least a bachelor's degree.
