Location
Founded in 1869, the City of Seattle has become a center for commerce, culture, science and innovation in the Pacific Northwest region. Seattle lies 113 miles (182 km) south of the U.S.-Canadian border and serves as a hub for travel and transportation to Alaska, Pacific Asia, Europe and the Salish Sea region (inland marine waters of Washington State and British Columbia). Surrounded by mountains and water, the Seattle area features picture-perfect views, a mild climate and abundant recreational opportunities year-round.
Quality of Life
Seattle is a vibrant metropolitan hub in a stunning natural setting. The city offers a wide range of housing options, exceptional arts, sports and entertainment opportunities, an abundance of shops and restaurants and easy access to outdoor recreational activities in any season. Seattle is frequently ranked among top U.S. cities as judged by education levels, the number and quality of arts organizations, communications connectivity, international diversity and culture of innovation.
Climate
High temperatures in July average about 75° F (24° C), while low temperatures in winter drop below freezing an average of 15 days per year. Average yearly rainfall in Seattle is 36.2 inches (92 cm), compared to 19.5 inches (50 cm) in San Francisco, 34.5 (88 cm) in Chicago, 39 inches (99 cm) in Washington, DC and 40.3 inches (102 cm) in New York City.
Industry and Business
Aerospace has long been a key industry in the Seattle area, thanks to the Boeing Company. Aerospace employs 82,000 people (including 7,000 engineers) statewide, produces annual revenue of $32 billion, and includes a cluster of 650 companies. The region is home to final assembly operations for Boeing's 737, 747, 767, 777 and 787 aircraft. Local educational institutions have developed specialized curricula and programs to provide the expertise needed for the aerospace industry. Boeing also produces the P-8A Poseidon in Renton and through Insitu, a Boeing subsidiary, is working on a Small Tactical Unmanned Air System Tier II project for the U.S. Navy.
Information and communications technology (ICT) companies such as Microsoft, Amazon and Real Networks generate annual revenue within the State of Washington of $13.6 billion and account for a total of 186,800 ICT jobs. A recent study of ICT jobs in the Seattle/King County area identified 50,400 in software publishing, 25,400 in computer system design and 9,100 in wireless telecommunications. Seattle area video game companies generate more than one third of the $10 billion annual revenue attributed to the game industry nationwide. The Seattle MSA is a leader in Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) and is home to companies such as Impinj and Intermec. The region is also emerging as a world leader in cloud computing and virtualization through the presence of Microsoft Azure, Amazon Web Services, Parallels, Skytap and Symform.
The Seattle region now includes 35 wineries with more than 80 acres of vineyards. The Puget Sound appellation breaks down into sub-areas of Woodinville, Seattle and North Sound. Statewide, 400 wineries and 350 grape growers comprise an industry valued at $3 billion annually. Leading reds are Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah. Leading white varieties are Chardonnay, Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon.
