And more SeaTac residents are working in SeaTac. (I already checked the numbers enough to know that all this is true, not a huge effect but significant enough to note.) If you have a few hours to run the numbers and figure out a good way to present them, let me know & we can chat more. Not super urgent… this is responsive to questions from one of the Tukwila councilmembers but it’s something that might be good for talking points as well.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Thanks!</div><div class="">Katie</div><div class=""><br class=""><div class="">
