BELLINGHAM, Wash. — A new survey of data from cities across Washington found Bellingham was the 6th best city to live in.
ChamberofCommerce.org looked at various statistics for more than 2,500 cities with populations over 25,000.
Based on employment, housing, quality of life, education and health, Pullman was considered the top place to live, thanks to its strong agriculture and what COC calls an “affluent and well-educated populace.”
Rounding out the top five is Redmond, Issaquah, Sammamish and Kirkland due to a high number of hiking and biking trails, tech industry jobs and their proximity to Seattle.
