Bicoastal

Bicoastal refers to something or someone that is located on or involves both coasts of a continent, most commonly the east and west coasts of the United States. The term is often used to describe individuals who frequently travel between these two regions, maintain residences in both, or have professional or personal connections spanning both coasts. It can also describe businesses that operate offices or have a significant presence in both eastern and western parts of the country.

The concept of bicoastal living or operations highlights the vast geographical and cultural differences that exist between the Atlantic and Pacific seaboards of North America. This duality often implies a connection to distinct lifestyles, economic hubs, and cultural trends associated with each coast. For instance, a bicoastal individual might be involved in industries prevalent on both the East Coast, such as finance or government, and the West Coast, like technology or entertainment. The term suggests a bridging of these two major spheres of influence within the United States.
