Seattle is a godless soulless husk of what it once was, attitudes that spawn things like <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Keep_the_Bastards_Out" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Keep_the_Bastards_Out</a> didn&#x27;t win out. Try living in Utah for a while (as a real or pretend Mormon of course) if you want to see what real culture and community tastes like even in 2015.<p>I work in Seattle but I&#x27;ll never live in the city proper. The rest of King County, excepting the south side, is at least a decent and modestly priced ($900&#x2F;month single bed apartment) place to live even if it has no soul. Unfortunately it won&#x27;t last, Bellevue is in the same place Seattle was not too long ago.<p>(This is more hyperbolic than it probably needs to be.)
