South Seattle
South Seattle has been Seattle's biggest industrial hub for over decades. Surrounding this highly commercial district are several distinct neighborhoods that offer a quite and convienent commute to work. South Seattle is also the gateway to neighboring towns and West Seattle. Some of South Seattle's biggest draws are the two major stadiums and Boeing Field.
This neighborhood shares its name with the large hill it sits on overlooking dowtown, the Rainer Valley, and the Puget Sound. With large residential neighborhoods, several commercial areas, and a large park, Beacon Hill has a lot to offer. It is growing in popularity, in part because it is home to Amazon.com's headquaters.
Georgetown is a fun mix of commercial buildings, quaint tree lined streets, and an artistic commercial area. Despite the fact that it is surrounded by the industrial area of South Seattle and Boeing Field, Georgetown is growing in popularity. People who are looking for a neighborhood off the beaten path are often drawn to Georgetown's distinct character.
