36 Hours in Seattle | The New York Times
/ thenewyorktimes
So hearing Seattle referred to as a small city made me laugh. Chattanooga (where I am from) is a small city, Seattle is a ginormous city!!! I love it though! :D
James Pressley it's about the size of Atlanta
Fellow Chattanoogan! Just relocated to Seattle after 21 years in Chattanooga. I miss it, but Seattle is enough to make you forget lol.
I mean, this is the New York Times saying it. From a New York perspective, Seattle IS small.
Seattle has less than a million people, so does San Francisco, so do many other major American cities :(.
@@tresjolieme81 Metro Atlanta has 4.5 million people!
I visited Seattle for the first time December of last and fell in love. such a beautiful, charming city filled with smiling faces and friendly people. can't wait to go back to explore
Wow the garden glass museum looks stunning!
After watching 36 Hours for European cities, Seattle seems so... quaint. Almost cute.
I live in NYC but it's always been a dream to move to Seattle. Hey, maybe eventually!
no it sucks in seattle my family move from Georgia (biggest mistake ever) and its absolutely sucks here
I hope you achieve that dream someday! I've lived in Seattle since I was 4, and I have loved every moment of it. It's a beautiful place, and I would trade anything to continue living here.
I moved here 9 months ago from Florida and love it! Good luck :)
Mariel A. I will be moving there to Seattle from South Florida in about 4 months in April or May.Im really looking forward to coming there and attending school at the Maritime Academy as well as finding gainful employment opportunities there with great pay! And... Yes! I am excited!........Shalom
Me too
I'm hoping go to seattle..... one day I well...
Beautiful.
I'm so happy I'm from Seattle :-)
Attention please watch: www.youtube.com/watch?v=J9_if ••• and share
i love this city and i haven't even been to it or to the US, if i ever get the chance to travel, it is definitly on my bucket list to visiting and discovering it also to know the people, they seem genuine
Nice insight! Would love to go!
"Where do you know that has a volcano?"
Portland
I'm going to Seattle again for a day this summer before I head off to Alaska for work. I went last year and wandered around Capitol hill, cool shops, restaurants and bars. I met a lot of people and had a great time. This summer I'm going to wander around the Belltown neighborhood area. I cant wait to check out that bomb sushi restaurant someone told me about and go on the Ferris wheel. I cant wait to eat some fresh oysters on half shell and drink good beer next to the water!
I would love to visit Seattle one day.
I absolutely love seattle❤
Can anyone who is a native Seattleite or just recently moved to the city tell me if the whole Seattle Freeze belief is a real thing? I want to move there after graduating college.
Well people don’t like random strangers talking to them. They like to be friendly and polite, but hate random small talk from people they don’t know. That’s how a lot of people socialize and make friends around the world, so transplants sometimes feel shot down in Seattle. If you’re more of an introverted type.. Seattle will be nice. There aren’t as many social expectations to not be socially “weird.” People don’t mind if you’re kind of awkward, as long as you’re a decent person. Sometimes we’re downright compassionate about it, because we were right there just a few days ago ourselves lol. A lot of transplants tend to get off-put, repelled, and confused by social awkwardness. That leaves us feeling misunderstood by everyone but our own.
Seattle is very big on kindred-spirit type friendships.. most Seattlelites don’t like having friends just to have them. You just gotta find hobbies/do activities that will lead you to like-minded people. Also, don’t take getting “shot down” too personally. A lot of people from Seattle can be overly shy and modest…sometimes they just don’t understand that you actually want to be friends lol. Social media has definitely made it worse. Also.. if someone seems rude and blows you off for no reason when you try to talk them.. they probably just got socially overwhelmed and went into flight mode. 😅 most of us are actually really nice. Extroverted transplants just need to be tolerant so they can avoid getting jaded too soon.
I hope this explains the Seattle “freeze” a little bit. Natives understand that it’s just the way a lot of us are, so we’re tolerant and back-off when we need to.
If we’re meant to be friends, we will keep running into them till it happens naturally. Although, it never hurts to shoot your shot and get more assertive. Just keep trying and broaden your horizons. Northwest people value kindness and open-mindedness. If you are willing to make friends with people of all ages and demographic.. you will quickly build great kindred spirit relationships. I know we seem cliquey.. but a lot of us are just afraid of getting judged or misunderstood. We all pretty much have an “outsider” complex.. which leaves us unintentionally treating others as such lol. We really like to feel like “they just get me” before we commit to strong friendships.
I’m a bit concerned that there was NO black or brown representation in this video...
Nice
I really want to move to Seattle!!
I love San Diego however Seattle looks amazing
Cool cooking
Seattle is my home town
The Town!
i went ther
Hello there Mabel
How many of the restaurants are still open in 2023?
I'm from Seattle Washington 🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴
It's an active and dangerous volcano !
havana looks pretty
I'm coming
Kind of surprised that they didn't mention Pike's Place..
Someone please tell me good places to visit in Seattle leaving on the 23rd to go there !
Seattle center, Pike place market, the Seattle waterfront, and if you want to; you could visit point ruston in Tacoma wa
Wished I lived in washington 😩
seattle gang wya
2:46 which pizzeria is this?
Seattle is expensive
My mom has seen there so many times without me cause she thought I was gonna get lost when I was small😂😭
I heard the sun don't shine in the northwest
you left out The 5th Avenue Theatre!!!!
Seattle was a great city in the early 80's but in 2017-2018 it has been a great hangout for Antifa just like Oregon. wouldn't live on the west coat if you paid me a million a year for life..
It's now glitzy like LA. Obviously that mentality has taken over. Seattle has a communist history with riots in the 30's. The U is Marxist.
This video was great, but of all the things to show, you showed not a lot. If you had 36 hours in Seattle, you'd see and do a lot more than that.
lot's of coffee shops.
european night,japanese food,middle eastern tower citie of seattle.
I was born and raised here. With the explosion of amazon and other companies the cost of living has gone through the roof. There are homeless camps all over. A place called the jungle near i5 was closed down less then a year ago. It was not place you’d want to step into. Lots of rundown motorhomes line nearby neighborhoods, and tents everywhere. While high paying jobs became available the lower paying support services don’t get paid well for the cost of living in and around the city. The person cooking your food or helping you with your shopping may call a tent Home in Seattle. Your server makes great money they get paid the highest minimum wage in the country and they make 18 to 20% in tips . $15 is the minimum wage in the downtown Seattle area except for small businesses they can pay a bit less. $15 an hr gets you a small Studio apartment with two other roommates at $1100 each plus your share of the bills. You can rent a nicer place in Manhattan for less. I recommend visiting Seattle it’s beautiful and it has a great feel in the clean parts. I do not in any way shape or form recommend that you move here. If you can afford $800,000 or more for a small home with cash on hand immediately after seeing it you could possibly find a place no guarantee ( just a side note the old renters were probably told they could not renew their lease to your new home because the house became a gold mine to the owner that sold it to you.) please visit and support the good restaurants and Attractions we have here, just really think about moving here.
Trying to make New York less crowded ?
Don't forget all the radiation from Fukishima that is settling there, YUM!
Not. Seattle is inland from the ocean, not on the coast. The water you see in the video is Puget Sound.
Seattle is a place for young people, not a lot of diversity, and has one of the highest discrimination lawsuit rates. If you work in the technology field you have it made, and very expensive. However, a beautiful place.
i thought Seattle was very diverse in terms of Asian population compared to other cities. Asians are only 14 percent population but that's a lot for American city. it's the first time i'm hearing about the highest discrimination lawsuit rates. where do i find that information?
The Asian population is larger than African Americans. Look up Discrimination rates from a peer review journal or article for WA State, its high.
Idk, I tend to see more younger people then older but it has a lot of diversity. I live in the city, walk, take the bus and work in retail. I see a lot of diversity regularly and I have yet to witness any discrimination. I'm curious to know where you got your numbers, and how those in any way relate to what the average citizen faces on a day to day?
It's not just about african Americans. I'm getting that vibe from how you worded it. What about gay and transgender? Or people with much deeper discrimination? Disabled people? And even if there wasn't discrimination, blacks would very likely still be minority. This isn't the east coast and definitely not the south.
I grew up during the 70's when diversity was pushed really hard. This is a different time now, so that is part of the fight as well now, but we cannot forget the racism that still exists in this world, and most of it is not in your face, but opportunities that a lot of people will not have.
stop moving here! stay out of Seattle! visits only please ;)
It's been unwelcoming. It looks like your finally loosing to dreaded California and New York.
Hey so what is there to do in Seattle? Go eat
I moved here from NYC. BORING!! OVERRATED!! Moving back to NYC.
Musician in Seattle Die in the 90s .
Is this all about restaurant and food??? I was expecting some beautiful places so that on my next visit i can go there .. totally disappointed 😏
NYT synonymous with irrational thought process
Still not as cool as Portland.
It's not a contest, they are complimentary cities, and Seattle was cool long before Portland was. Portland is already past it's cool point as well (all the old bars and clubs have closed or are closing and there has been massive building). I think you will see, it's all about how to retain the heart and soul of your city through growth and change, it will be interesting to see where Portland lands 10 years from now as it grows, it's still so small!
chattigre I lived in Portland for a really long time and everyone has this inferiority complex/hatred of Seattle, to the point where they feel the need to go out of their way to irrelevantly comment on a video about Seattle how "Portland is cooler."
Seattle: San Francisco # 2 but with less racial diversity.
Eww
Eh, Portland is better
Doesn't look too inviting. Probably because this video is geared to tourists. How boring all of this looks.
Seattle's okay. Portland is far better.
#OregonMasterRace
I've been to both and Portland doesn't appeal to me that much, lol.
***** I've been to both but Portland
Cogajon then how you base your on opinion that Portland is better if you have not been?
***** I don't know what lead you to believe that I have not been to Portland. I actually lived in Portland and have been there many many times. I've also been to Seattle many many times. That's how I base my opinion. My own experience
oregon is actually better than WA in my opinion
Remember where the grunge legends Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Alice In Chains, sound garden all came from. Also Microsoft, Starbucks and Amazon.
I live in Seattle and it's gorgeous and stunning. A beautiful skyline and a Beautiful mountain range with Mt. Rainier in the middle. It isn't grey everyday trust me and the summers are the best. Also forgot to mention Jimi Hendrix
Tierman Beats If anything Seattle gets hot as hell in July and August.
Seattle has a subculture that you wouldn't know about unless you live there. A lot of awesome places you wouldn't know about unless you're familiar with Seattle. Bathtub gin is one of them. An awesome almost speakease-esque place for good drinks you usually don't get to experience.
Marination food is Amazing!!! but don't steal my parking spot, Lol!!!!
we have a Blest life!! all though we don't tan here we rust, ha ha ha! peace
哟西
What about the space needle, the under ground tour, the EMP museum and literally so much more. Doesn't really show all the fun stuff to do in Seattle. 😕 (don't forget about Bainbridge 😂)
Sweet Cakes Agree!
This is how New Yorkers look at things lol. There is so much more not just Seattle but all the way up to Bellingham Washington state is crazy.
The underground tour is the most stupid scam ever. You just line up to walk through a sewer. That's all.
Seattle is nothing compared to Portland Oregon
Ugh Portland -trying to be Seattle circa '92. Seattle and the Bay Area are way cooler than Portland. Portland has napoleon complex.
Let's agree to be competitive siblings. I'll posit that Portland is Seattle's somewhat odd younger brother, but if you like one, you'll probably like the other.
Reasons?
Seattle is great and beautiful i love this City and specially the Seattle Seahawks
Patrick Porsdorf Im a seahunks fan and i saw REAL seahunks player🌁
SEA HAWKS! sorry had to do it! ! ! ! !
This video kinda lacks of showing the REAL essence of Seattle that makes it a great place to live. We're more than just fancy restaurants or these hippie stores that we actually don't go to every weekend. Seattle is genuinely the most subtle place to live. It's made up of smart, open minded and down to earth people. We like being out there being productive and contributing to our community. The scenery is absolutely amazing, makes you feel like you're living in an urban city but at the same time you still feel like you're surrounded by nature. Honestly Grey's Anatomy is probably the closest thing that captures and show what life is here like(and most of its filming is not even set in Seattle btw) for people who don't live here. It's nothing compared to other major cities like LA which the media makes it seem like a perfect place to live but in real life, it's trash, it's very polluted, and the people are so simple minded and superficial. There's a reason why the richest man in the world is living here. Anyways my point is... what the hell is this video???
It’s a strange video that captures a very upscale, very white side of the city (though Asians were included as a curiosity for interested white people I guess).
It’s a 7 minute video for potential tourists who’ll likely visit here for the food.
“Smart, open minded and down to earth people.” Yea, you are from Seattle. Always patting yourselves on the back
Seattle looks awesome
Egsibicheh in seattle
It is awesome.
james goldstein i been there and it was awesome and theres beautiful homes 😊🏡
I live just south of Seattle in it's lesser known sibling, Tacoma. Seattle is my favorite city (although I'm a but biased because I live within an hour of there).
Yeah, the architecture seems really cool to name one cool element.
Seattle is the best city on the west coast hands down. SF is great for a couple months but living there for a while you realize what a shitty wannabe LA it really is
That's your opinion good for you
Seattle the mecca of tech yuppies.
Better than the cringey self righteous ones in the bay area
Be thankful. Those tech yuppies help pave the way and helped make it possible for you to leave your negative comment on RUclips possible on your Smartphone.
It seems like you skipped over the really cool stuff about the city and focused on your sponsor restaurant
none of you know about the REAL seattle.
Keep it that way. Too many Californians creeping up there
Show me this Seattle! I plan to visit in 3 weeks.. i want to see the Seattle the locals see.
black coffee At least the Californians are realizing it's better up north.
I know it's lame af.
black coffee for real bro
Long family history in Seattle: mother sledded down Queen Anne Hill as a child, uncle wrote a novel about his favorite tavern The Comet on Capitol Hill, and I was there during 9/11 (all the Boeing planes grounded that day).
Love the comet. Very dive bar, but the food and atmosphere is amazing.
Did you think maybe you should include some Black people in this video? WTF?
William Borden i was thinking the same thing... funny I wanted to move there but I figured "WE" don't live there SAW NONE
Are there black people in Seattle?
We do have black people in Seattle! But I guess all 3 were busy the days they shot this video.
Mina Hughes Barely lol
Fouseytube will be here. bruh bruhs for ever
how often is it rainy ?
Winter,fall,Spring on and off summers are usually fine
+flerper derper 300 days a year. In the winter the sun goes down at 3 am, and in the middle of summer 930 pm. The locals are the most arrogant people you've ever met and there's some seriously bad areas for an american city.
+Subversive Intentions lol, didn't know we had sunshine til 3am???
Joe Olive hehe you're right 3PM.
+Subversive Intentions At latest the sun goes down at about 4:30 PM
cant wait to get back...moving back in march.yes...
+Rik R. Lucky you. I'm trying to move there.
I want to move there May next year. It's seems like not just a beautiful city, but it seems clean and safe to me too
+Pink Pearls
It's a beautiful city, Art every where you go but is not clean at all. A lot of homeless people and construction going on.
my named is Albert and I'm from Seattle wa. and I loved Seattle is much fun to lived. and I'm twenty three year old pilipino. and I'm from renton wa.
Those looking to move to Seattle need to be aware of the Seattle Freeze. I suggest you know people here before moving or have family here, because making friends around the city isn't easy. People here tend to be pretty introverted. Lots of newcomers have said they've felt isolated at times.
thanks for that in site, for I'm loving kind person but I tend to be introverted. I still hope to at least make one friend if I move there next year
I feel it soo easy to make friends here, I lived in Ohio and new York and they're so racist and nasty
I'm from Seattle and the freeze is real. When I moved to the bay lots of people thought I hated them for the longest time lol.
So true. 90% of the kids in my school are introverted.
Yeah it’s a thing. I was spared it to a great extent because music afforded me instant community, but I still feel the distance that people maintain here. It’s like many just don’t want to bother with other people, or be bothered by them, beyond superficial cordiality and “Seattle-niceness.”
I love my state
This place so beautiful...very attracted!!!
Seattle is the best. So beautiful and lots to explore here!!
I just moved to Seattle and this video makes me really proud.
Amazing city. But really Washington is amazing in general. How many cities you know that you can drive an hour out and go to a mountain. the Olympic peninsula is beautiful too. So much to see and do here
Video incrível - em irei mora em Seattle.
Great video!
Seattle as this weird effect on you. Once you move there it's hard to leave it. Something about that city that just keeps you there. lol
MrGrownman455 It’s the depression, you lose all motivation to do anything, moving included. ;-)
It's a very Strang place. Now you have the radical left on the streets, Antifa.
Seattle is only great when you have alot of money to do these things. The downside of Seattle is that it is full of people littering. The urban sprawl is the greatest in the whole country which means there is more pollution from cars. There are too many smokers polluting the air and the homeless people are everywhere.
Seattle is a little too waspy and expensive. It's better to live in the south suburbs.
Not past federal way. Tacoma is too far.
BrandonSeattle I went out to Tacoma and its not as half as bad as people claim it was. I had people telling me it's Seattle's version of Oakland. Tacoma was pretty cool to me.
BrandonSeattle Isnt the Expence worth it?! HELL YEAH!
Amy Deck
I guess the city center is too congested. it's ok for having fun but theres more space in the suburbs.
+BrandonSeattle Snohomish County is where it's at. South Everett is a fine town (as well as Lynnwood, Mukilteo and Edmonds) and the commute to Seattle isn't bad. 25-30 minutes, or so.
***** I like renton, little expensive though.
Actually,Portland-Or is so much better than Seattle in so many ways.For example,public transportation in Seattle is expensive and it sucks.But in Portland is so much better and cheaper.Also,apartments in Portland are so much more affordable than in Seattle which makes Portland so much more attractive to those who want the best for less.
***** Well Seattle is one of the fastest growing cities in the U.S. We are building new buildings at an amazing rate. More and more people are moving here regardless of the insane housing cost. Minimum wage is the highest in the country. You do have a point though, transportation here is horrible. But we all know Seattle will always be the premiere city in the Northwest. Portland can claim they are better as much as they want, but statistics don't lie.
Aaron Dizon Insane prices? I've yet to see one of those videos where there's some poor soul living a in a walk in closet for $900 a month. Or where some person has to turn their apartment into a transformer just to get some leg-room.
***** You're dumb. Trimet fare: $2.50, Metro fare: $2.50. Also, apartments in Portland are becoming the same price as Seattle, except nobody can afford them because there are no jobs there.
***** And again, a Portlander loses their argument. Thanks Matthew.
Also, Seattle is building a subway. Portland has surface light rail that goes 5mph through downtown Portland. -someone who studied Urban Planning in Portland and lives in Seattle.
great... now i´m hungry.. :(
Bae
More outdoor shots and less indoor shots, please. Thank you. :)
Wow, this video just dipped its toes into what Seattle REALLY is. But I guess if you're only in the world's best city for "36 hours", this actually would be what you experience: hardly anything.
Seattle is the best city in North America. That doesn't mean we're perfect, but its close enough.
+Andrew Stephenson No, we are perfect lol jk
+Andrew Stephenson Lol, do people from Seattle often watch videos about Seattle and comment on how great they are? Idk about the best city, but you're reputation on being the most pretentious seems to be accurate.
HapaHarley Yes, we are pretentious enough to comment on videos about how great we are. We can be obnoxious, and we know that, because we cannot contain our pride for our city.
Andrew Stephenson
Wow pretentious and sassy. When you claim the best city clearly you're talking about the infrastructure, location, job opportunities etc. because there's no way you're talking about the people.
V Lo
If by "too cool" you mean a bunch of junkies, then yes, Seattle people are too cool for me
Seattle is the place to be.
Seattle is way better.. The only thing Portland has is no tax.
Fun fact: Oregon uses personal income tax
The dark force. They've won. The time effect was successful. Its 1987 and the only music in Seattle is Kenny G...............
What about Nirvana?
+TERRA ZOO if memory serves me correct, Kurt was still barefoot in the spring of 85 as we discussed over pancakes at the Nordic Inn in Aberdeen WA as to how awesome trio bands are.......believe they were just getting going with SUBPOP then so by 87...hmm still on the rise out of lumber mill heaven? But Yes ... Nirvana rocked it way way way in a big way. RIP K
Absolutely gorgeous!! I just posted my seattle city guide! Take a look if you fancy- its more personal than this :) xx
Havanas!!!?? Haha I've witnessed a couple fights there,but met the smartest and cutest girls there.
i love havanas lol
Seattle is growing. Every city needs a root, and Seattle is no different.
I've been to Seattle it is awesome peaceful and quite there it's a nice place and it's also where my home football team is I live in Yakima Washington so I'm close to Seattle I'm going to move there when I get big and have u saw the Seahawks stadium it's pretty huge!!!
Portland has a volcano within city limits.. we are so badass over here that there is not only a volcano within city limits.. but it is a park ;) we play on it...
Jacob The Great Mt. Tabor is smaller than Capitol Hill.
Well I have news for you mt.rainer is also close to Seattle and the highest mountain in the northwest and is one of the most popular volcanos in the United States but the most popular volcano in the United stars is also close to Seattle it's called mount St. Helens
This IS NOT THE REAL SEATTLE and it burns me with rage seeing you all make my town look all yuppie scum to those who've never been here!
Watch Anthony Bourdain The Layover Seattle
And we always did stay out late and have culture, you just choose not to show any of it.
Hudson Olbricht I'm in Tacoma, I want to go to Seattle so bad. It's literally right by my doorstep, it's my dream to live there in a nice apartment, going out to the various restaurants, possibly meeting a nice woman. My mother works in Swedish hospital there and occasionally takes me on visits. It's the next best thing to New York. You are so lucky to live there.
+Lila Alex Inglis Don't act like we don't have our fair share of tech yuppies. I agree though, this video doesn't really do Seattle justice.
