Replying to Seattle

So I've been really interested in living out in Seattle. I currently live on the east coast and I really haven't ever liked it, I'm more of a wilderness kid. Anyway, people in Seattle, what's it like to live there? Are there any good mountains around? (I know some but not a lot, I.e Bachelor). How much does it rain. Is the crime bad? Are there any really defining factors I should know about that would make someone not want to live in Seattle? Thanks.
