Very close to cute shops and parks, as well as to the University of Washington ; but still feels like a family neighborhood. Great local transportation within walking distance and awesome grocery stores all around.

great neighborhood, walk to parks, stores, restaurants. I've lived here all my life. It feels like a suburb, but just steps to an urban feel. Very close to the University of Washington, and a 10 minute drive to downtown.

Love this neighborhood. Great and easy to walk to interesting places. Went to the local high school and had a great experience. Feels very safe and a nice community overall.
