West Seattle is the best of both worlds. I have lived in several places in the area - In more quiet, rural areas and right in the city action.
This location offers a perfect balance. You can experience the perks of suburban peacefulness, privacy and spaciousness, while being just 15 minutes from the excitement of downtown. Diverse beaches, parks, and forests are right at your fingertips. And a bus stop just two blocks away provides a 20 minute ride to the stadiums and the city. The ferry system is also a great way to get around. The West Seattle water taxi goes back and forth from the heart of downtown and the other ferries can take you across the sound to the Olympics. Not to mention you’ll be just 15 minutes from SeaTac airport!
