Hi there- how does Seattle treat newcomers? Is it difficult to meet people? I am a single woman exploring moving from New Jersey (yuck :-) to the area to be near more people my age (I'm 28), live near more parks, greenery, and water, but also be near a city that has a vibrant culture with lots of performing/visual arts events. I'm into outdoors activities like hiking, running, biking, cultural events, and also the arts scene. Part of my hesitancy to move is that I'd be coming in alone, just knowing a couple people in the area. Please let me know if you have any insights- thanks!

Also, any advice for a good area for a single person to live? I worked in Bellevue for a month but found it too "suburby" for my taste.

Thank you!!!

Hi melgrace. Please read through these two threads:

Making Friends in Western Washington

Official "Seattle Freeze" Discussion Thread

We'd like to keep all discussions pertaining to this topic in these two threads. It's a passionate subject on this forum so we don't want it spread in too many threads because it tends to get a lot of repeating responses.

All your other questions can be answered in this thread, though.

Thanks.

Awesome- thanks for the tip.














Mod note: Go ahead and create a new thread for any inquiry that pertains to anything other than the "friendliness" issue. Thanks!
