I'm not surprised by this. It seems like everyone's moving here. As a native, I remember how things were growing up in the '80s...hardly any traffic. It's getting hard to move around, anytime of the day. I think the market needs a full time traffic station, just like Vancouver BC.
Now all they need to do is change the name from Seattle to Amazon City.
Agreed, but this really has more to do with a stagnant Detroit more than anything else.

If Tacoma really does get the second HQ they might have to change the name to that...Now all they need to do is change the name from Seattle to Amazon City.

You haven't noticed all of the people moving here? I see a lot of out of state license plates on a daily basis.
But I would argue Seattle is also the fastest growing of all these areas. And if the economy miraculously doesn't blow up, we'll probably be in Top 10 in 5-10 years.
I didn't say people would leave, but growth may slow. Even during the last recession, we were still growing because of our tech base. But the economy on a national level is still very fragile and that affects us as well.
It's not just the tech base. The ports of Seattle and Tacoma are vital to US - Asian trade. Something cities in the midsections of the country don't have in their favor as much during downturns.
I personally don't see the Seattle metro ever not growing. It's been steadily growing since the late 1970's, and it hasn't stopped. Plus, everybody wants to live here because of the lack of fiercely cold winters, the scenery, etc.
