Comments on Seattle

I'm looking to move to seattle next year. Or at least visit. Some of the things you have said I have figured on my own. One thing you confirmed is that if you exclude Boston and manhatten. Seattle seems to have to a high degree of educated poeple which like? You said breaks for and against you. I also notice, there isn't his high energy, play boy culture like miami or l.a. or, vegas, seems to be a stable, high tech services society. with adequate night life. also these bike lanes are some of the best in the country. Where you can ditch the car and use a bike. Lastly I also understand that in Seattle down town seems to be 15 dollars an hour minimum wage.

Coming from Georgia also and thinking about moving to Seattle. I have a few friends there already and they say basically the same as you concerning pros and cons. Will an educated person fare better in Seattle than Atlanta? I have a MS in Environmental Science(Agriculture). Thanks for sharing your thoughts!!

I'm originally from NY but have been living in Japan for the past 15 years. I was hoping to move to Seattle in October but I've decided on March next year. I've been doing security for the EU in Japan and I see tons of security work in Seattle so hopefully with my years of experience in the military and the EU work in Japan is strong enough of a resume to find something decent. I love the vid and I look forward to more of your content

Sacramento Modern Era
Modern era
Sacramento Regional Transit Light-Rail
The city's current charter was adopted by voters in 1920.[19] As a charter city, Sacramento is exempt from many laws and regulations passed by the state legislature. The city has expanded continuously over the years. The 1964 merger of the City of North Sacramento with Sacramento substantially increased its population, and large annexations of the Natomas area eventually led to significant population growth throughout the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s.
Sacramento County (along with a portion of adjacent Placer County) is served by a customer-owned electric utility, the Sacramento Municipal Utility District (SMUD). Sacramento voters approved the creation of SMUD in 1923.[20] In April 1946, after 12 years of litigation, a judge ordered Pacific Gas & Electric to transfer title of Sacramento's electric distribution system to SMUD. Today SMUD is the sixth-largest public electric utility in the U.S., and is a leader for innovative programs and services, including the development of clean fuel resources, such as solar power.[21] The year following the creation of SMUD, 1924, brought several events in Sacramento: Standard Oil executive Verne McGeorge established McGeorge School of Law, American department store Weinstock & Lubin opened a new store at 12th and K street, the US$2 million Senator Hotel was open, Sacramento's drinking water became filtered and treated drinking water, and Sacramento boxer Georgie Lee fought Francisco Guilledo, a Filipino professional boxer known as Pancho Villa, at L Street Auditorium on March 21.

Sacramento Capital City
California's State Capitol Building
The California State Legislature, with the support of Governor John Bigler, moved to Sacramento in 1854. The capital of California under Spanish (and, subsequently, Mexican) rule had been Monterey, where in 1849 the first Constitutional Convention and state elections were held. The convention decided that San Jose would be the new state's capital. After 1850, when California's statehood was ratified, the legislature met in San Jose until 1851, Vallejo in 1852, and Benicia in 1853, before moving to Sacramento. In the 1879 Constitutional Convention, Sacramento was named to be the permanent state capital.
Begun in 1860 to be reminiscent of the United States Capitol in Washington, D.C., the Classical Revival style California State Capitol was completed in 1874. In 1861, the legislative session was moved to the Merchants Exchange Building in San Francisco for one session because of massive flooding in Sacramento. The legislative chambers were first occupied in 1869 while construction continued. From 1862 to 1868, part of the Leland Stanford Mansion was used for the governor's offices during Stanford's tenure as the Governor; and the legislature met in the Sacramento County Courthouse.

Sacramento Past History - Spanish Exploration
Spanish exploration of Sacramento
In 1808, the Spanish explorer Gabriel Moraga discovered and named the Sacramento Valley and the Sacramento River. A Spanish writer with the Moraga expedition wrote: "Canopies of oaks and cottonwoods, many festooned with grapevines, overhung both sides of the blue current. Birds chattered in the trees and big fish darted through the pellucid depths. The air was like champagne, and (the Spaniards) drank deep of it, drank in the beauty around them. "Es como el sagrado sacramento! (It's like the Blessed Sacrament.)"[13] The valley and the river were then christened after the "Most Holy Sacrament of the Body and Blood of Christ", referring to the Catholic sacrament of the Eucharist.

Sacramento General Info
Sacramento became a city through the efforts of the Swiss immigrant John Sutter, Sr., his son John Augustus Sutter, Jr., and James W. Marshall. Sacramento grew quickly thanks to the protection of Sutter's Fort, which was established by Sutter in 1839. During the California Gold Rush, Sacramento was a major distribution point, a commercial and agricultural center, and a terminus for wagon trains, stagecoaches, riverboats, the telegraph, the Pony Express, and the First Transcontinental Railroad.
