Eastside is one of the city’s most affordable neighborhoods on the rise. This up-and-coming neighborhood has something for every taste and lifestyle with affordable to mid-range single-family houses, townhomes, and apartments available for rent. Many of the hillside rentals have great views of the city and of Mount Rainier as well.
Renters enjoy Eastside’s convenient location that allows for easy access to all points in the city. Commuters can hop onto Interstate 5, Interstate 705, or Highway 7 to go to work in Downtown Tacoma or Seattle. Meandering Swan Creek Park and McKinley Park provide outdoor enthusiasts with numerous walking trails for recreation and exercise. Residents can pick fresh blueberries at Charlotte’s Blueberry Park just south of the neighborhood. Eastside Tacoma has numerous bars and restaurants that attract people from all over the city but residents also enjoy going into Downtown Tacoma for more dining and entertainment options, which is only five miles away.

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.
