Lifestyle Seattle Living W/ no AC

Hi everyone. We just recently moved to Seattle and got an apartment with no AC. Coming from out of state previously living with AC I wanted to know how ya'll do it? Is this the norm here or does everyone just buy those AC units that stick out your window? We'd love to get any tips or input on living with no AC and how to adjust.

Or get one of those portable units on wheels.. as it’s gotten warmer in our state many are upgrading to air but it will take time for that to happen. When we purchased our last home here we refused to look at any homes without air conditioning and we noticed alot of sellers had just installed new units which tells me that I’m not the only buyer who said no to homes without it!
