Watching this again, seeing a house in Seattle advertised at $375k said to be priced 'right through the roof' is painful. The tiny little Juanita house I lived in as a teenager is now worth almost a million dollars. I moved to the east side of the mountains a decade ago because I just couldn't afford it over there anymore.
Where in the world are the old Tully's shops? And can I buy a cheap place north of Chittenden Locks? Zillow says Tanner's got a cheap cardboard box. Oh, the times they have a chan-ged.
What’s sad is 375 was supposed to be a joke now if you found a house for 375 in Seattle you would thought you got the deal of a lifetime for the times they are a changing
I penned a verse about Seattle in the 2000s or so after my younger grandson was born. Never finished the song, though. It's to the tune of Kentucky Babe, see below. Daddy's stuck on 405 drivin' home from Microsoft. Sleep, my yuppy babe. Mommy's down in Belltown lookin' for a larger loft. Sleep my yuppy babe. We'll find you a preschool that guarantees Harvard or Yale. Or maybe also Stanford, 'cause even yuppy kids can fail. We'll make sure you're left behind, Not in Iraq or jail.

Love to see Bob do a 2022 update on this, he'd probably beg to have these days back!
Way cool 😎! What's amazing is that this is still relevant in 2024! 🤣🤣🤣😊
I just recently moved to Seattle, I like it a lot but I wish I could've been there in the 80s/90s, seemed like such a cool place back then.
It was!
Everywhere in America was less homogenous in the 80’s and 90’s
Not gonna lie, this always has made me tear up a little even while I"m laughing, because it was true then and it's even worse now.

What is sad about this is that all this is true. I miss the old Seattle!
