Feeling good about Seattle? A recent survey shows you're not alone, as more residents are confident in the city's future than in years past.
By the numbers: The newest Seattle Metro Chamber of Commerce survey, which polled 700 registered voters in September, found that 61% of respondents were optimistic about the city.
48% believed Seattle was "headed in the right direction," up from just 30% two years ago.
Additionally, fewer people said they were considering leaving Seattle.
46% expressed thoughts of relocating, compared to more than 60% who said earlier this year they considered it.
