💸 Amazon's HQs

#Amazon’s relationship to its hometown, Seattle, WA, has been complicated at best. The company has poured close to $4 billion in real estate spending into the city. Amazon is currently employing 45,000 people who have an average annual salary of $110,000. Critics say these moves have driven up the cost of living in the city. While the tech giant has grown, it has also deferred 54 million in state taxes alone, due to a high-tech corporate incentive in Washington state.
