Neighborhood

Uptown, formerly known as Lower Queen Anne, is one of the city’s oldest neighborhoods. Uptown is one of the most active neighborhoods in Seattle. Known for historic architecture, this urban hub is home to high-tech companies like Amazon, along with some of Seattle’s biggest landmarks and attractions including the iconic Space Needle, the Museum of Pop Culture, the Pacific Science Center, and so much more. Although the neighborhood hosts many tourist attractions, authentic neighborhood charm and quirky treasures can be found quite easily as well.

Uptown is perfect for true urbanites, offering mid-range to upscale apartments and condos.

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.
