Amazon Expands Exodus from Seattle, Relocates Workforce to Bellevue

Amazon is accelerating its departure from Seattle, abandoning large swathes of commercial office space in favor of nearby Bellevue. The e-commerce giant will relocate hundreds of employees, citing better safety, lower taxes, and a more appealing business environment as primary motivators. During the pandemic, Amazon delayed returning employees to downtown Seattle, pointing to increasing crime, homelessness, and deteriorating conditions. Now, with mandatory in-office work starting, the company is consolidating operations in Bellevue, known for a stronger sense of security and city services. Critics argue that Seattle’s anti-business policies, like taxing large companies, have driven firms like Amazon to reconsider their presence. Bellevue’s attractive incentives, contrasting Seattle's burdensome taxes and safety issues, make this move a logical step. As Seattle struggles with budgetary shortfalls and urban decay, Amazon's exodus highlights the city's broader challenges, raising concerns about its economic future and business appeal.
