City Data
Seattle, Gateway to Asia and Largest City in the Pacific Northwest, is unusual in many respects. A bustling (if small) metropolis of 600,000 humans, it is more magically active than it might otherwise appear (it is the only city in America to commission its own ley-line map!)
While wizards are few in the city, it is practically overflowing with sorcerers and minor talents; strangely enough, it has little visible vampire presence, and is something of a 'Casablanca' as regards the Red Court Vampire War.

The Balance of Power
What is the Supernatural Status Quo?
The city has many factions, all politicking intensely, each seeking whatever gains they can get. The Summer Court has had some success and is consolidating its holdings (though it does not quite dominate the local Nevernever), but other factions are still in the game despite many players not having shown their hands.
What is the Mundane Status Quo?
An economic roller coaster that everyone rides, whether mundane or supernatural alike. That is 'business as usual' for Seattle - only with an edge of desperation not previously seen for many years.
