Seattle is the Best City for Gamers
Seattle ranks No. 1 as the best city for gamers. Which, when you think about it, really isn't too surprising with the home of Microsoft's main office (PC & Xbox) being a quick 15-minute drive away in Redmond.
WalletHub went through the vigorous task of comparing the 100 largest cities based on 20 different levels of gamer-friendliness. Everything from internet speed, E-sports tournaments to gamer stores per capita. Good timing, too, with E3 2018 (Electronic Entertainment Expo) coming up next week. That tends to be a weeklong Christmas to us geekers.
