Nestled along Puget Sound, Tacoma is a seaside city ideally located about halfway between Seattle and Olympia with about 30 miles to both. The city is actually named for Mount Rainier, which was originally called Takhoma. If you are looking at apartments in Tacoma, consider Central Tacoma -- it is located on the west side of Downtown, directly south of the University of Puget Sound. Central Tacoma is home to Cheney Stadium and several golf courses.
Life is easy in Central Tacoma -- Tacoma was named one of the most livable cities in the nation. It is also one of the most pedestrian-friendly, and it is home to Washington State's first electric light rail service. As for culture, Tacoma is home to the most museums in the state.

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.
