Tbh they dont. This isn’t an adult playground city, most the “transients” are here for a purpose. I call it the child rearing city of the west coast. Once the Californians are ready to grow up and settle down they move here to buy a home and start families. Most the young people are actually from here. I suggest trying an adult playground city if an open social scene is what you’re after (SF,LA,NYC etc)

Ya I was gonna say they absolutely stay here we have one of the most favorable tax situations for high earners in the entire country
F as have been here for two years and haven’t made a single friend despite trying hard :(
It’s ok, I’ve lived here for 3 and only have 1 or 2 friends 😆
I lived in downtown Bellevue for 2 years, made lots of aquaintances. Friends not really. I at least got invited to stuff. It takes time. I lived in Everett growing up many years ago and it was tough then too. Eventually you meet one person with a network and you are in. You kinda need one friend that grew up there. Unfortunately a lot of those people were pushed out due to affordability. Until you find that person lean on the other lonely souls from work.
It's the freeze y'all... look it up. It's a real thing.
