What are some fun things to do on the weekend in South Lake Union?
All you have to do is go over to Lake Union Park! It isn't completely finished but there's loads of outdoor space near the water and there are a lot of opportunities to explore old ships. The whole area is historic and fun to wander around.
-
I want a car-independent affordable neighborhood near downtown Seattle. What will be some good options?
Thankfully, Seattle is one of the most walkable cities in the country. If you're looking for an apartment near downtown Seattle, check out Pioneer, Square, the International District, Belltown, and Lower Queen Anne, as these are all highly walkable neighborhoods.
-
I have a two year old child. I want a neighborhood with some good pre-school options near downtown Seattle. Please suggest some affordable options.
There are lots of pre-schools in downtown Seattle, including some highly-regarded Montessori schools. Check out apartments in any of the downtown neighborhoods, like Pioneer Square, Capitol Hill, Central District, or First Hill.

I'm moving to Seattle and am originally from Southern California--will I need an apartment with air conditioning?
Seattle has rainy climate with a warm summer and cloudy in spring, late fall and winter. Winters are cool and very rainy with average low around 35-40F. Summers have average day time around 73-80F. We would say no, it is similar to the San Francisco climate, and we don’t have AC.
-
We are moving to Seattle with a 1 yr old. Are there any kid friendly neighborhoods around. My workplace is in Seattle downtown, and we have 2 cars. Please suggest any area in Seattle or nearby suburbs
Seattle is affectionately referred to by it's mayor as a city of neighborhoods. This is mostly in virtue of the fact that Seattle proper has expanded to include neighboring towns. The Seattle metro area is a pretty compact areal; for example, Bellevue, a rapidly growing town is only 5 miles away, though it can be classified as suburban in regards to housing type and neighborhood feel. Mercer Island, east of Seattle as well, is also a suburb from which many people commute to downtown Seattle.

I am relocating to Seattle from Los Angeles and don't know anything about the city, but want to be in the middle of all the action. Do you have any suggestions?
Fremont is one of the Seattle's liveliest neighborhoods. It is called “the Center of the Universe." Located north of the Ship Canal that connects Lake Union to Puget Sound, this neighborhood is famous for its artsy air and lively mix of bistros, bookstores, boutiques and coffee shops.

I am a 39 yr old, profl, single mother who is considering relocating from Cheyenne, WY to Seattle, WA with two young chikdren, 5 and 8. I grew up back East and miss culture
A lot of families end up living outside Seattle, since suburbs like Bellevue and Mercer Island are very close to downtown Seattle, but if you would like a more downtown experience, we recommend either Fremont or Green Lake, located North of Downtown, or Queen Anne Hill, located south of Downtown and Lake Union. If you want to be a bit further from downtown, check out the Fauntleroy district.
