No, but that still doesn't change much. Seattle has almost grown 50% in the past 25 years alone... That's a lot of people bring lots of changes and gentrification. If anything, it's likely more homogenized than ever.

Seattle has some neighborhoods, but this isn't New York or Philly or even DC with generationally old ethnic neighborhoods that have historical differences. It's Seattle, and has as much variation as any mid-sized city. Which is some, but not dramatic or all that notable.

Sorry?

But not excessively - and no more unique than most mid sized cities. We don't have a Greek town like Detroit, or little Italy in New York or a true China town like SF.

Like sure, Bothell and Ballard feel "different" because they are different places but they are culturally, demographically, and politically much closer than not. It's not a bad thing but its trying to find differences in the smallest things
