Best to settle in Portland. Commute to both cities to keep options hedged. Come on Op. which is better blue or red. Are apples better than oranges or snakes more dangerous than sharks.

Snakes are way more dangerous. An estimated 20,000 people die from snake bites each year while sharks kill less than 20

settle? as in buy a house? you're looking at 1.5mil for a piece of shit

Amazon Pee=Npee Apr 1, 2018

Yes in terms of weather, life style, savings, buying home, etc. I'm in bay area, thinking of moving to Seattle ;-)

Bay Area probably is good for healthy mind, body and social life. I’d stay there if I could continue. Seattle weather hurts your enthusiasm in general, all the outdoor stuff is useless most of the year, RE prices at this point are getting closer to Bay Area. I don’t see any advantage moving to Seattle, if it is Austin, Denver, Etc I see different trade offs.

In Bay area if you want to stay close to office and in good school district, you need to pay around 2 mil for a single family house. Seattle is way cheaper isn't it ? Weather is Bay area is awesome compared to Seattle

Seattle is somewhat affordable to buy a home and do traditional settle down. Bay area if you have 2.5M assets+

Bay Area is controlled and designed by old NIMBYs. There’s nothing left to do for fun except look at some trees and nowhere to live that doesn’t give the landlord your whole paycheck.

Seattle is doing it's best to copy that mentality.

I was in Seattle last weekend, at least they have buildings over 4 stories. That’s a capital crime here.
