I know of a much hipper city, but you probably haven't heard of it.

As a person with publishing privileges on an online platform with an established readership, you can always choose not to reblog a press release from a company "with an emphasis on #content marketing."

But instead, Katie, you decided to be part of the problem.

What's so hip about pretending to be progressive while taxing the working class and poor to death then bending over for Amazon, the white biking elite and the old money establishment? Seattle is a lie.

I liked the Dave and Busters comment about Portland btw.

I know people who have lived in Salt Lake City and, not surprisingly, it has a very strong alt scene that involves no magical underwear.

So unless the ABV requirements on their beer disqualifies them, yeah, I'm not surprised Salt Lake City is more hip than Seattle.

Maybe do some research next time rather than just reposting press releases?

Does Spokane have more people with hip replacements than Seattle and what do hip replacements have to do with being hip or non-hip.

Also, if the Stranger could get over their hated of Mormons they might find that Salt Lake City has a lot to offer and is actually more livable that Seattle.

@5 they don't "hated" Mormons, Mormons hated them first

I really like Salt Lake City. The Wasatch range is even more striking than our mountain ranges, and the downtown is still sort of funky. A good thrift shop selection as well. But the bar scene is absolutely ridiculous. We stayed at the Red Lion and I wanted a glass of wine. A glass. My options were to have a full bottle delivered to the room, or go sit in a fluorescent-lit conference room full of fellow drinkers, with no music or anything. You can't even buy liquor in grocery stores. It's worse than Washington State back in the old days. I felt like I was in Kansas.
