Shoreline, WA

Within reach of Seattle, yet far enough away to be considered semi-rural, Shoreline's natural beauty, abundant resources and location were recognized by the first people to live in the area. Those same characteristics continue to describe Shoreline today.  As with many of the Seattle Metropolitan area’s outlying cities, Shoreline grew alongside the introduction of major railways. 

With the end of World War II came a tremendous demand for family housing. The late 1940s saw large housing developments, such as Ridgecrest, spring up seemingly overnight. Schools ran on double shifts as families with young children moved into the new homes. In the late 1940s, business leaders and residents began to see Shoreline as a unified region rather than scattered settlements concentrated at Interurban stops and railroad accesses.

In 1944, the name "Shoreline" was used for the first time to describe the school district. Coined by a student at the Lake City Elementary School, it defined a community which went from city line to county line and from the shore of Puget Sound to the shore of Lake Washington.  It wasn’t until 1995 that Shoreline officially became a city being incorporated by King County. Today with almost 54,000 residents, Shoreline is Washington's 20th largest city.

The city of Shoreline is easily commutable by Eastside, Seattle, Everett and Eastside workers.  Interstate 5 and Aurora Highway 99 run through Shoreline North to South making it easy to get where you want to go. 

Shoreline residents can ditch their cars during the day to be chauffeured around town by three of the region’s transit agencies. Transit access is a top priority in Shoreline, with eight park-and-ride lots, multiple bus routes and Metro’s RapidRide from Aurora Village transit center to Downtown Seattle.  Maybe you prefer a two-wheeled commute?  Shoreline has you covered with just over three miles of the Interurban Trail that takes you south to Seattle or north to Everett.

What sort of fun things are there to do in Shoreline?

Lake Washington sits just on the outskirts of Shoreline’s eastern boundary.  Lake Washington is the largest lake in King County and 2^nd largest in the state.  It is a destination for many.  At over 22 miles long, the lake offers an endless amount of recreational possibilities. 

Shoreline’s western boundary is the Puget Sound.  Boating, whale watching and gorgeous ferry ride adventures are just outside your door.   One of Shoreline’s best kept secrets is the 3.4 miles of Puget Sound shoreline surrounding Richmond Beach.  In a region of breath-taking views, this one stands alone.  Richmond Beach Saltwater Park offers the community a place to play with family, and friends even in the winter.

If you head 20 miles as the crow flies in any direction, you’ll reach most major destinations including Pike Place Market, University of Washington, Microsoft’s Redmond campus, Sea-Tac Airport, Paine Field/Boeing, Amazon’s campus in South Lake Union, multiple ferry terminals to points beyond, multiple hospitals, downtown Seattle, downtown Bellevue, and downtown Everett, nationally renowned museums and cultural venues and world-class shopping.  With all this in reach, it’s no surprise that there’s 1.1 million jobs and 2.1 million people within 20 miles of Shoreline.

If you are an outdoor enthusiast, Shoreline is just an hour and a half’s drive from Snoqualmie Pass Ski and Recreation area.  Parks, trails, rivers and lakes dot the region.  There are several golf courses including Seattle Gold Club that are close by.  Hiking, biking, fishing, golfing, kayaking, skiing, camping, boating, dining, shopping.  The list goes on and on! 

What about Shoreline Schools and Education?

Shoreline’s highly sought after public schools are rated at 8 out of 10 by Greatschools.org, with a 25 percent above average in-state proficiency.  Both public high schools were recently completely rebuilt, creating inspiring learning environments for students and beautiful campuses for surrounding neighbors.  Shoreline is also home to award winning Shoreline Community College and is only a short drive to the Seattle University of Washington Campus.
