The bikini girls vary, to put it lightly. IMHO they're twigs, but a lot of guys go for that so...
And as for the 'mega erruption'...yeah that was supposed to have happened many many years ago, and still not a cough from the big guy. Or even from the little girl (St.Helens) as it were.Even living on the edge of the Ring of Fire, we have fewer natural disasters than almost anywhere else...and those we do get I will take over tornadoes and hurricanes any day!
As for actual housing costs, I can only tell you general apartment prices for the different areas. I'm not in the house market, and probably won't ever be so. But it does depend on area a lot. In Seattle, a studio can cost you upwards of $1000! But in the suburbs, such as where we live, you can get a nice 1 bedroom for $700-800. And most complexes up here have good amenities and W/Ds in the apartments.
So yeah, PNW is awesome.![]()
