Hi Amy.

Lots of contract jobs in Seattle (especially for Microsoft), many small to large agencies and the community isn't very organized. There are AIGA events and what not, but I've seen some pretty solid work and designers out here. Also a bonus, you can get paid pretty well out here.
Were are you coming from?

there is a local IXDA chapter that meets like one a month or once every 2 months. Plenty of design jobs for Microsoft, Amazon, and a few others. Agencies around like frog and Artefact.
