Where Seattle's Billionaires Live, Drive From North to South Mercer Island, WA, Fall 2022

[@notshylo]

It’s actually a pretty big island, larger than I expected. For all the wealth, I’m surprised the downtown area in the north isn’t fancier like one of those chic Bay Area cities on the peninsula. Perhaps nimbys shut it down or maybe PAC NWers are just more low key. I wonder how many hoops you have to jump through to build anything there. I imagine the hurdles are high! That Honda driver was probably wondering if you were following them 😅. Thanks for the tour of a place I’ve never seen!

Thanks for watching 😊

Beautiful autumn foliage & steady camera. Seems like it's going much faster than it is. It got pretty boring. You could have done some narration to make it interesting.

Great video!

I live there and there are some pretty broke areas (which I am living in)

[@catylynch7909]

Well, I suppose that it was nice to see the roadways ... and, a little bit of a town. But, that' all I saw.

[@pattyjdouglas]

I didn't see one Billionaires house anywhere.

[@PNW4K]

I was just showing the neighborhood. You can't actually see any billionaire's homes around here, they're all very private of course. Thanks for watching! 😊🤗

It looks pretty clean street. I can't never dream about living there... ha ha

[@PNW4K]

Thanks so much. Thanks for visiting 😊

With so many homeless shelters and food banks on Mercer Island the people that live there do an excellent job keeping the crime rate lower than the rest of WA while keeping the island very welcoming and inclusive.😂 Humanity at its worst.

What is your answer to homelessness(drug addiction) CB?

[@WalkiTalki]

@@sterlingmarshel6299 Ha! sorry I was being sarcastic. If you lived here you would know the rich have made this island exclusive and have a higher count of tax payer funded police than the rest of our state. And there are no shelters there.
