The public transit in the Seattle area is solidly "pretty good" if you live in the right area. It's continuing to grow as well, if you live in the right area.

As you might guess... I don't live in the right area. And Seattle (sound transit) basically gives you the ๐Ÿ–• if you don't. But truly, it's actually pretty good if you can take advantage of it.

(It would take nearly 2 hours with no traffic on public transit alone for me to get to Seattle, 20 miles away)
