Seattle Auto Shipping

Seattle is a city located in King County, Washington; it also serves as the county seat of the county, and according to the official US Census conducted in 2000 the population of the city was over 594,000, which makes it the 25th largest city in the United States as well as the largest city in the entire state of Washington. Seattle is also the core city of the Seattle-Tacoma-Bellevue Metropolitan Statistical Area, which has a total aggregate population of over 3 million residents.

Seattle was first founded in 1851 as a port city. It grew quickly, with the addition of railroads into the city connecting it with the rest of the country and only pushing its population higher. The city’s history is relatively uninteresting until the end of the 20th century, when the city became the headquarters for both Boeing and Microsoft. But while the city’s history itself may not be incredibly fascinating, its culture is; it is the birthplace of grunge music, with bands such as Alice in Chains, Nirvana, The Presidents of the United States of America, Sound Garden and Pearl Jam all calling the Seattle-Tacoma-Bellevue area home.

Because of its location west of the Cascade Mountain Range, as well as its location directly on Puget Sound, Seattle gets its fair share of rain. During the summer months, rain is not all uncommon, and temperatures in the city top out in the mid 70’s; higher temperatures are quite uncommon. At night, temperatures can drop into the mid 50’s, and during the winter months average highs reach into the 40’s while lows drop down to around freezing.
