Well the stats tell you all the particulars of the state. But what they don't tell you is that we have a fairly high pagan population as well as a few gay-friendly/safe cities such as Bellingham, Discovery Bay, Olympia, Port Angeles, Seattle, Walla Walla to name a few. For the most part you will find Western Washington the most open minded and the most liberal. Caring about the Ecology, Recycling are just a couple of the causes well supported here by the populace. We have the beauty that will take your breath away and temperate climates as opposed to the rest of the country. Boeing, Microsoft, Nintendo and Starbucks call Washington State home. There no reason why you shouldn't either.
