Ask people to put a pin on a globe at where they think PNW is, they will come close to Victoria. Give them a big sticker, and they will cover Victoria.
Terms Cascades and PNW are used more often in ecology and geography to represent a 200 km coastal band from Whistler down to at least Eugene OR.

Drive to, park once, do many things, lifestyle power centers deserve more love from urbanists.
Potemkin mullets with businesses in front and long parking in the back.
