As downtown Seattle offices empty, city facing yea...
Amazon didn't "relocate" - they just moved most of their new hiring to Bellevue.

If you pay attention to the WARN layoffs notices you'd also see they fired at a much higher rate in Seattle compared to Bellevue.
So faster hiring east side. Faster firing west side.
It's a soft relocation

I think raw numbers are misleading - they have more Seattle employees, so per capita WARN rate is more interesting. Do you know what the percentage impacts were?
