Hear me out: I've lived in Seattle 15 years and it can be annoying, but it's what you make of it. However, if Business Insider wants to make it look bad, that's better for all of us here. The fewer people who move here the better.

He doesn't realize it, yet, but what he's doing in that regard is looking back fondly on his college days.
