In the greater Seattle area you need to travel quite far out to cut the price by any significant amount. There are some very basic suburban houses in Bellevue, Kirkland and Issaquah selling for upwards of $2 million, and those are a good 15-20 miles away from the city itself.

If you don’t believe it, pull up Zillow or Redfin and set a price threshold under $1M and see how many listings instantly disappear. If you want a good laugh, take a look at what’s left.
