Choose Washington
Along with an expert workforce and culture of innovative creativity , Washington is an amazing place to live and work . It has an international reputation as a mecca for those who love the great outdoors , a place where you can surf the ocean in the morning , play 18 holes at a PGA championship golf course in the afternoon , and still have enough time to get in a few black diamond ski runs before bedtime .
The Northwest spirit is everywhere – from funky festivals and quaint towns that dot the landscape , to our diverse interests and curious nature . It is no surprise that more than 500,000 businesses have chosen Washington state as their home . These companies range from small , in-home startups to world-famous brands . Thanks to our highly educated workforce , creative culture , mild climate , clean air and spectacular scenery , Washington state is without question one of the most desirable places to live and work in the United States .
