“I don't have any plans to live anywhere else for the rest of my life.” - Chuck Marunde (and a lot of other retirees who say the same thing)

What's so good about Sequim WA?

Sequim WA is one of those rural quiet and peaceful communities that feels like you went back in time at least 30 years. Far from the crime ridden city of Seattle and far away from the traffic jams of I-5 and I-405 and all those nasty onramps, Sequim's crime rate is almost non-existent, and a traffic jam is 5 cars in a row.

The Blue Hole, aka the Rain Shadow is very real, and Sequim WA only gets 16 inches of rain a year, 1/3rd that of the Seattle area. We don't have temperature extremes here, high or low, and snow is a rare commodity. We have none of the tragic natural disasters of the east coast or the southern coastline, and we . . . well, we're not California.

With that said, here are the Top 10 Reasons To Retire in Sequim WA:
