All down the Northern pacific coast, actually. I think the Hoh rainforest in Washington is the only one that’s formally (meets the technical criteria?) recognized as a rainforest, but there’s lots of rain up and down Oregon/Washington/BC/Alaska. Surprised we don’t see more of them outside BC on this subreddit actually

You know, I kind-of-but-not-really-wish I’d grown up somewhere flat like Florida or Illinois or something instead of Washington just so I could experience seeing a mountain (much less a mountain like Rainier!!) for the first time and have my brain melt. So glad it was that magical for you.

Cool fact, Rainier’s the tallest mountain in the lower 48 United States measured from base to summit. You won’t find that kind of hill anywhere else in the contiguous states!!

Seattle Seattle, no, because that’s a city, but there’s absolutely places in western Washington that’d look like that. The western slopes of the Cascades and the Olympics come to mind.

But houses like that exist on the fringes of any major city, you’ll probably be fine.
