The last time Seattle was a nice place to live was in the early ‘60’s when it had a Republican mayor.
Not a single one since, and it’s gone down the toilet at an increasing rate ever since.
The last few years, the rate is almost straight down.
We left King County in 1993 and never looked back.
“...in the early ‘60’s when it had a Republican mayor.”
Just as it was 1984 when the last Republican governor left office. I left Seattle in 1985 and it’s just about time for me to get out of Washington. Hope to be gone soon!
