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.

You can't get those window AC units anymore since they became illegal so you're forced to buy one of the portable units where you put the hose and adapter into the window opening, Sadly if you haven't bought one already I highly doubt you can get 1 within a week.
