Cascadia subduction is a coastal issue (devastating there). Puget sound can't get big tsunamis. Single fam residences aren't really known for collapsing. Old reinforced masonry buildings downtown are bad but meh.

Much worse would be Mt Ranier popping it's top.

It's bad. I see people shit in the streets daily. It smells like weed and piss 24-7. Shitlib city leaders actively court it; more homeless means more programs. Lol then they'll fine you $100 if an aluminum can ends up in your trash.

Definitely live outside the city proper. Lots of little beach villages along the sound.
