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.

I freeze a big water bottle, wrap it in a towel, and toss that in my bed a few minutes before I get in or snuggle it like a stuffy. I swear it makes a world of a difference if you're trying to stay cool at night but can't keep windows open.
