Seattle. Unless you are really put off by rain and grey skies.
It is vibrant, beautiful, and much more like a "city".
Phoenix is ... spread out, dry, hot ... a nice place to visit, but not necessarily to live.

Seattle and Phoenix are completely different.
Seattle has moderate temperatures with a ton of rain. There is a lot to do there (lots of restaurants, local shops, arts, museums, zoos, etc.). I love it there.
Phoenix is hot and dry. (I used to live near there, but haven't actually been to Phoenix.) The winters will be mild, but the summers will be ridiculouly hot.
If you're seriously considering moving to one of these cities, I would recommend visiting both to see how you like them. Definitely do a lot of research online (not just asking people's opinions). Check out the cities' websites and see if they have the job opportunities, culture, events, etc. that you're interested in.
I would definitely move to Seattle over Phoenix. In fact, I recently moved from a dry, desert climate to a city outside of Seattle.

Phoenix is a desert city, full of lots of retired people and expensive shopping.
Seattle is a vibrant, young city that gets a lot of rain.
Take your pick, but I think I'd go with Seattle!

seattle is a little more dynamic in terms of what is available to see and do,the wages are better but the cost of living is higher and the weather is not that great,phoenix has a cheaper cost of living ,better weather,but not as vibrant as seattle in terms of culture and things to do outside of work...lived in both cities.

Seattle, I stay in Phx. value of living right this is low. That interprets to you're making so little and your place is so little in fee you would be unable to get adequate funds to go away in the adventure that your had to simply by fact issues value lots someplace else. pay attention the marvelous to artwork states. Seattle's gloom could be depressing for somebody so youthful nevertheless. definitely the the different persons answer Boulder Colorado is a solid one. They those days gained considered one of those ultimate places to artwork surveys. i've got been observing boulder myself because it is value of living isn't as extreme simply by fact the Left coast yet has solid IT and extra moderen housing and entertainment kinds. (aka yuppieville)
