Washington Nice to Small Business
According to the WSJ, our beloved state of Washington is #4 on the top 5 small-business-tax-friendly states in the country. I haven't yet tracked down the source of these stats, or if anything beyond B&O taxes was included but will post up more details if I can find them. For what it's worth, here are the top 5 and bottom 5 (+1 extra) small business friendly states:
Most Friendly:
- South Dakota
- Nevada
- Wyoming
- Washington
- Texas
Least Friendly:
- New York
- California
- Maine
- Minnesota
- New Jersey
- Washington DC
I'll keep this post short and simple, and let the community do the talking. Go forth and discuss!

Found this lastnight on Criaglist. I thought this was interesting. Just wanted to share. seattle.craigslist.org/tac/ats/113020800... Studio Space at Old City Hall Open floor plate in Old City Hall to be sub divided to suit. Third floor location, high ceilings, views, light. Some areas have mezzanine. Architecturally, the floor space divides itself naturally, but we are flexible on build-out. Quarter, half floor plate, and well as smaller footage available. Pricing depends on size with rents starting at $275-300 per month. The building has elevators and is well located with good visibility. We are focusing on revitalizing the building, and will be offering all retail and office space up to lease. Possibility of displaying works in common areas. No preset hours of operation or pet policies. Building has sprinklers. Serious parties are encouraged to look at the space. Be a part of bringing this majestic building back to life! Have a Happy Sunny Day! |

Dear god! Imagine how bad NY must be. But that space in the Old City Hall looks amazing. $275/mo is kinda pricy, but I guess it depends on your sq footage. |
