Seattle-Bellevue having a better ratio than Wenatchee, Walla Walla, and Tacoma is kinda funny.

The first two aren't exactly expensive towns, but they are minor tourist and vacation spots.

Tacoma though... Nobody wants to live in Tacoma.

I imagine Wenatchee and Walla Walla are somewhat skewed from low wage jobs from farming? Maybe? I'm more entertained Kent is grouped with Seattle and Bellevue 🤣

Yeah, Kent, Bellevue, and Seattle are three entirely distinct cities.

Seattle is relatively normal, Bellevue is almost entirely inhabited by millionaires and wealthy Chinese exchange students, and Kent is where you live if Tapout tshirts and monster energy drinks are a daily part of your life.
