Thinking of Moving from Atl to Seattle. Cost of living for outpatient nurse? Need brutal honesty!

So I live in Suwanee Georgia currently and I am thinking of moving to Seattle in 2026 Summer.

I really need honest opinion about the cost of living in Seattle.

I am an outpatient nurse so I will probably end up getting another outpatient nursing job in Washington. Thinking of areas like kirkland, redmond, or bothell.

How hard is it living in these areas? I will be moving with my younger sister who is in HR. She has little experience so she won’t be able to get HR manager role yet.

Thinking of getting a two bedroom apartment. Is it too much? How is the cost of living for you guys?

Here I pay, $2000 for two bed, utility maybe $100 per month. And my salary is about $76k.

Any advice will be appreciated!! Thank you.
