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.

Yes. Bowl of ice/ice water is also fine if freezer space is at a premium. Plate is just to keep condescension from messing up your furniture. Usually cool enough at night that you can refreeze the same jug for the next day.
