My friend just moved here from New Mexico and got a job the first week she arrived. Not a college grad type, but something to keep her going until a good one comes along. We are in Bellingham and it has lots to offer. It has Western Washington University, so college students keep it young and active. There's a lots of activities, great outdoors, the ocean, fun people, excellent health care. Seattle is about two hours away for big city life if needed. 47 months ago

Are you independent? Do you have the ability to make a good living anywhere? If so you may want to consider a state with low taxes or no state income tax. Just a thought that you HAVE THE RIGHT TO KNOW.

Relocate to WashingtonSearch Washington Community Directory for Local Information & Resources With year-round-green scenery, fresh air of the Pacific Northwest and all the amenities of one of the most popular metropolitan areas in Seattle, its no wonder why Washington State has a reputation as a great place to live. A robust economy is one of Washington?s strengths with productive traditional industries of lumber, agriculture and farming combined with today?s leading companies for high-tech and computer innovation giving the state greater income and job opportunities.Since farmland occupies more than 40 percent of the state?s area, it is no surprise that Washington leads the nation in apple production. It is also ranks high in the production of cherries, peaches, pears, plums, berries, lettuce, peas, hops, potatoes, asparagus, beans and onions. Lumbering ranks third in revenue and Washington is only behind California in wine production. The state also ranks high in the nation in the production of fish and seafood. Not all of Washington?s economy is tied to its natural resources. Manufacturing, particularly aircraft, is a key cog in the gear that drive the state?s economy.The statewide sales tax is 6.5 percent, with cities and counties each allowed to add increments of 0.5 percent. Qualified areas also may impose increments of 0.1 percent up to 0.6 percent. Cities and counties my levy lodgings taxes of up to 2 percent, except in Seattle, where the rate is 7 percent on lodgings within the city limits and 2.8 percent in King County outside of Seattle.The nation?s first volcanic monument was opened near Mount Saint Helen?s. Washington is also home to more that 130 state parks, 26 wilderness areas, 3 national parks and 6 national forests. Mountain climbing and yachting are popular in the Cascades and Olympia areas. Clamming draws big crowds in Puget Sound. Fishing and hunting can be done in just about any area.
