    "Beacon Hill feels like a secret. I can walk down to the International District, ride my bike anywhere, drive in Seattle in 5 minutes or jump on the 90 and be in Bellevue in 15 minutes. The apartment sizes here are great too."

    "Easy on light rail to downtown. Or biking as long as you don’t mind hills. I never ride the bus but it also seems convenient "
  • Roberto L.
    "Traffic has increased in the last few years. Cyclist friendly. It’s not so bad. There’s a little problem with the asian supermarkets on 12th ave that usually block one out of two lanes wich creates traffic when coming from downtown trough the Dr. Rizal Bridge. "

    "Everyone is usually very kind. People smile at each other on the streets. There is a large population of Mexican and Somalian culture in the community which is wonderful to see. We have a little community garden where people can plant flowers and fruits and vegetables. "

    "Seattle's best secret pocket, I've chose to live here in three different homes over the course of 30 years. A short bike or medium walk to downtown. A quiet, diverse, and un-hyped neighborhood. I travel often and I really appreciate that you can get to Sea-Tac in under 15min driving or 24min by light rail."
  • Mahalie

  • Pramathmalik
    "This is a super quiet neighborhood which is right next to a beautiful park. In the summer you can feel free to walk into the I-90 trail and enjoy the Seattle Sun. In the winters and other seasons you still have access to the biking trails and amazing food at International district. "
  • Megan D.
    "I've lived here for 2 years and have seen a lot of change in reference to new construction and more new families moving in. The urban village is community-centered and local! I hope it stays that way! Great parks!"
