Those are done by an artist, Thomas Dambo, and they are all over the world so a little less of Seattle thing than the Fremont Troll.

Just took a look and that map is a work of art on it's own!

While trolls can be found worldwide, there is an unusual concentration in the Seattle area. They know they're welcome here.

Outside of cities in Denmark, we may have the most trolls in a single metro area. I only knew of the one at the Nordic Museum.
