Calling Us Home
From waterfront estates to suburban ramblers to condominiums in the heart of the city, Bellevue offers housing choices to suit any lifestyle. Views of lakes, snow-capped mountains, parks and open spaces are common in nearly every neighborhood. Recreation facilities, freeway access, good schools and amenities are near to all of Bellevue's neighborhoods.
Bellevue has 47,120 housing units within 31 square miles of city limits. While nearly half of Bellevue's homes are older than 30 years, a strong urban economy and well paying jobs has translated into one of the hottest housing and rental markets nationwide.
Downtown Living
Downtown is quickly becoming Bellevue's fastest growing "neighborhood." In 1990, approximately 400 units were located in downtown. Today, downtown is home to more than 1,800 households. Looking ahead, the city estimates that more than 15,000 condominiums and apartments, housing more than 22,5000 people, could eventually be built in downtown. This move towards a more urban setting is due to the increasing number of high tech companies that have located here. These companies tend to be fast paced, with a young workforce, and round-the-clock operations, which means that convenient, in-city housing is a much-desired amenity by companies thinking of locating to Bellevue.
Close To Everything
New commercial ventures in downtown Bellevue include entertainment and attractions such as cinemas, restaurants, galleries and theaters. This increased nightlife and cultural activities are within easy reach of those living in and around downtown.
