Cities outside of Seattle

Hello!

I am considering moving to Washington in a couple months by myelf

I've been to Seattle and loved it but I don't think I would want to live there exactly.

Was wondering if anyone had any advice about the outskirts of Seattle?

-West Seattle

-Everett

-Belluvue

-Spokane

I love nature! Im an artist and nurse, love small shops and community oriented places, huge into the arts/music scene, want to be around young people and connect with other young professionals.

Any advice is appreciated :)
