Surrounded by mountains, water, and evergreen forests, Seattle enjoys thousands of acres of  parkland. Due to its lush and verdant landscape, the city gained the nickname “Emerald City,”  officially adopted in the 1980’s by the Seattle-King County Convention and Visitors Bureau.  Located on Puget Sound in the Pacific Northwest, Seattle is Washington state’s largest city  and home to a large tech industry, Microsoft and Amazon having their headquarters in its  metropolitan area. 

Seattle has universal appeal; beaches, parks, mountains, museums, and unique places like  Pike Place Market beckon visitors and residents alike. The Market has more than 500 vendors  and offers local food, produce, and crafts. The city’s largest downtown green space, the  Olympic Sculpture Park lies a mile north of the Seattle Art Museum. 

The iconic Space Needle rises 605 feet above the city and offers stunning views, including  Mount Rainier, Puget Sound, and surrounding mountain ranges. The Loupe, the world’s first  and only revolving glass floor, has its home in the Space Needle. Offering fans a wide variety of  sports, Seattle’s professional teams include the MLB’s Seattle Mariners and the NFL’s Seattle  Seahawks. 

The strength of aerospace, technology, and retail industries along with emerging sectors in  interactive media and clean technology make Seattle a major business center. Many Fortune  500 companies such as Amazon, Costco, and Starbucks showcase the city as a fine location  for expansion. Additionally, Seattle ranks consistently as having one of the most highly  educated populations in the United States. The University of Washington in central Seattle,  founded in 1861, is one of the oldest public universities on the West Coast.  

Education, cultural opportunities, and entertainment of all types combine to attract anyone  visiting or considering living in Seattle. The city’s appeal is constant and on-going.
