One Of The World's Best Places - Olympia WA
For years I've been telling people how great Olympia is as a place to live, work, and play. In the 30 plus years I've lived here, I've seen incredible growth. Nonetheless, Olympia retains much of it's small town feel. Downtown Olympia looks much the same today as it did 30 years ago. Most of the changes have involved city improvements, mostly to Olympia's beautiful waterfront areas. The boardwalk along Budd Bay's marina's and port is fantastic, as is the park around Capitol Lake.
Olympia is the capital of Washington State with a Capitol Campus as nice as any I've seen. The political activity surrounding the Capitol adds interest, as does our Evergreen State College. With our quality of life, low crime, great schools, easy access to Puget Sound and our many lakes, I definitely think of Olympia as one of the world's very best places.
But don't take my word for it, here are some links to articles:
What is quite impress is how well the entire state of WA did on the Forbes Magazine List. As a whole, I would say WA is a great state to live in.
YES! I love Washington State! Sometimes it can get a little "out of the way", but it stays trendy enough to attract most people for at least a vacation.
For sure this is really one of the top places to live in! We'll have to save more money in order to get there :)
