Neighborhood

South Seattle refers to a vast collection of communities situated between Downtown Seattle and the city of Renton. Among the many communities in South Seattle are those in the Rainier Valley, the Industrial District, Beacon Hill, and Bryn Mawr-Skyway.

While each of these communities has its own distinctive character, rentals in the area tend to be slightly more affordable than their Downtown Seattle counterparts. Rentals in South Seattle are generally convenient to Lake Washington, where recreational opportunities abound. Interstate 5 cuts directly through the region, connecting residents to Downtown Seattle as well as Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, which lies just southwest of the area.

School data provided by The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. 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.
