Known as the Emerald City, Seattle is enveloped by natural beauty from sea to sky, with panoramic vistas of Mount Rainier, a lush green skyline, and waterfront recreation on the shores of Lake Washington and Puget Sound. Seattle is among the top international centers for commerce, development and culture. And anchored by global health, philanthropy, tech and international business with headquarter offices of Amazon, Microsoft, Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, and more.

Seattle’s economic prosperity and love for the arts has fostered more cultural offerings per capita than any other US city. It’s home to The Pacific Northwest Ballet, The Seattle Symphony, The Seattle Art Museum, numerous performance halls and two new professional sports stadiums drawing dedicated fans for the Seattle Seahawks, Seattle Sounders and of course the Seattle Mariners. Additionally, popular attractions like Seattle Center and The Pike Place Market, one of the nation’s largest and longest running public markets drawing more than ten million visitors a year. And most notable are the celebrity chefs of renowned restaurants, scores of music lounges (the home to Nirvana) and of course, more coffee shops on any corner than any other city its size.

Bikeable

Commuting or recreation, sometimes it feels good to strap on a helmet and go for a ride. Whether it's getting to work alongside cars on a busy street, or having reliable bike trails nearby that kid-friendly, living in a bike-friendly city, town, or neighborhood positively impacts traffic. Not to mention,...

Top Walk Scores®

Living in a neighborhood with a top Walk Score® is more than a sidewalk-lined street. When your favorite coffee shop is just around the corner, the grocery store is nearby when you run out of milk, and on a sunny day you can skip your way to the park – you’ve found yourself a walkable neighborhood....

Golf

Not every home can sit on the 18th green, but for golfers ready to tee off, proximity to your favorite golf course can make your weekends (or weekdays) even more relaxing. If you love to hit the links, consider living near one of Western Washington’s PGA certified golf courses, or, even just close...

Waterfront

For some, the call to live life at water's edge is undeniable: The sunshine reflecting upon the water’s surface, boats or ferries passing by, birds soaring overhead, the glimmer of a wavy sunset. From boating and beachcombing to kayaking and birdwatching—find these activities along the shoreline....

In-City Living

Whether it's the appeal of living close to where you work, having nightlife options at your fingertips or just wanting your next great meal to be right outside your front door, in-city living can appeal to so many. With the growth of the downtown core in Bellevue and Seattle, both condo demand and supply...

Great Restaurants

Even if there's a wait at one good restaurant, another great restaurant is nearby. That's what it means to live in a neighborhood known for its food. There are options to please discerning gastronomes and picky foodies alike. For those who feel they "don't belong" in the kitchen but love a great meal...
