The writer of the article and the report itself point this out several times. Seattle had a unique economy which contributed to the success.
Here we often complain how western countries have much better standard and salaries up to 10x more, but the reason why is that is because western countries are service/real estate based hence the difference, only food price in store is same. So for example hairdresser here cost 5$ while in Austria would cost 50$.
