       <h2>Where To Live In Seattle</h2>
        <p>
          Seattle has a lot of great neighborhoods that are often defined by the geography of the city as well as characteristics unique to each area. Deciding where to live can be a reflection of who you are, where you work, what sort of commute you like, and how you like to spend time away from work.

        <p>
          Generally, the further you are from downtown the more residential the neighborhood. With the exception of Lake Union, the closer you are to water, the more residential.
