One-third of Seattle residents are considering packing up and moving elsewhere, largely citing home prices and crime, according to a Seattle Times/Suffolk University poll conducted in June.

Roughly 33 percent of Seattle residents surveyed say they are seriously considering moving out of the city, while 67 percent say they are not. The survey was conducted with 500 residents by phone from June 12-16 and has a ±4.4 percent margin of error.

I'm sure some of these residents voted for this so they should stick around and enjoy it.

Yep. And that was planned all along. There was a black, female representative that let the cat out of the bag. That people from blue need to run into red.

Most of them voted for this.

Biden got 75% in King county, but some of the parasites are now looking for a new host.

They should be forced to stay. They voted this on themselves. They should not be allowed to inflict their miseries on other people.

Hey, Seattle is only the 8th most expensive city in the country to live in. And it’s only the 15th most expensive city in the world. Oh, and Washington recently overtook California for the dubious distinction of having the highest gas prices in the country. Throw in the situation with the homeless, and I ask you, why would anyone want to leave?

They could move to California ... it is closer than Florida or Texas and it would be very easy for them to be assimilated.

It used to be called “white flight,” but that would be racist. The civilized generally prefer to live among such. Ignorance and hatred know no race or color, but it serves political purposes to keep particular groups uneducated and marginalized. It’s best to be out of the line of fire when their enmity destroys them.

Homeowners wanting to leave Seattle may find selling their house to be an interesting and long-drawn-out process. For those folks who rent, they can time their exit with the expiration of their lease.

Given what rental prices are like in the Seattle area, with a little prudence they can find far more affordable digs.

Work-from-home types can just relocate their desk. Others may have to find jobs in their new location — but judging how many “For Hire” signs are still up, they may not have that much difficulty effecting the shift.
