"Expats in Seattle often find the local culture to be quite different from what they are used to. The weather can be a challenge, as Seattle is known for its rainy and cloudy days. Additionally, the cost of living in Seattle is quite high, making it difficult for expats to adjust to the local economy. Furthermore, Seattle is a very diverse city, and expats may find it difficult to adjust to the different cultures and customs that exist in the city. Finally, Seattle is known for its laid-back attitude, which can be a challenge for expats who are used to a more fast-paced lifestyle," remarked another expat who made the move to Seattle, the United States.
