I recently got an offer to join Meta (Seattle) and will be moving to Washington soon. I’m debating whether to live in Seattle vs Bellevue, and I’d love some advice from folks familiar with the area.
I’ll be in office 3 days a week. I’ll have a car, but I’ve heard the commute from Bellevue to Seattle can take 45 mins-1 hour, and that parking in Seattle is pretty limited and $$$.
A bit about me – I’m in my late 20s, single, not into bars/clubbing, but I love neighborhoods that are vibrant and walkable, with access to things like parks, different types of classes/workshops, nature/hiking, etc… basically just engaging things to do that aren’t nightlife focused.
Commute time (30mins or less) and safety are also important to me. I’ll have a car, but ideally I wouldn’t have to rely on it every day.
Curious to hear from folks who’ve lived in either (or both), and what you would recommend based on the above? Thanks in advance 🙂
