Why do we love living in Bellevue?

Bellevue is located across Lake Washington from Seattle and is the 3^rd largest city in Seattle metro. It’s home to some of the world’s largest tech companies (Amazon was founded here), has 80+ miles of trails, and is driving distance away from 3 National Parks—North Cascades, Mt. Rainer, and Olympic. In true PNW fashion, Bellevue residents enjoy the beauty and restorative power of the outdoors, from the sea level to the mountain tops. Plus, our city is considered one of the best places to live in Washington state and is often ranked among the best mid-sized US cities for its promising job market, excellent schools, growing population, and top-rated parks.
