City - Des Moines

Just south of SeaTac Airport between I-5 and Puget Sound, Des Moines is a large suburban community just minutes from both Seattle and Tacoma. With an abundance of affordable apartments, condos, and houses in town, Des Moines is a great option for commuters who work in either of the neighboring cities, as well as for students, faculty, and staff at Highline College.

This section of the Puget Sound shoreline allows easy access for boaters, and several recreational marinas operate in the area. The landscape slopes sharply toward the water in many places, providing unbeatable scenic views from as far inland as the Interstate.

Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
