I moved the opposite direction. Granted, I&#x27;m only in my mid-30s, but I have no plans to move back to the Northwest. I love it when I visit, but I realize what you see of an area when you visit is very different from when you live there. I always visit when weather is nice, I don&#x27;t mind the traffic as much when I&#x27;m on vacation..<p>Granted, the traffic on the Peninsula has gotten really bad in the past few years, it&#x27;s ALMOST as bad as Seattle!
