I'd love to hear why other trans and queer refugee folks picked their state! Perhaps I should move to Washington?

Puget Sound, specifically King county, will be the best place in my opinion for Washington. The greater Seattle metro and i5 corridor is probably the right place to start looking. Keep in mind the further from Seattle and Capitol Hill you go, the more pockets of right-wing you find.

Agreed, 100%. I live in Pierce County, Eastside Tacoma, and I didn't have to go too far last election season to see loads of MAGA signs and signs of support for whatever local MAGA-heads; basically just outside the city limits. I've lived here for 7 years, and haven't once had issues with anyone personally, but they're certainly around here.
