6 Reasons to Live In North Bend

Reason#1 Amazing scenery in North Bend:

        Imagine waking up to scenery like this everyday. When you live in North Bend it is the reality!

Simply driving through town or pulling into your neighborhood, you can’t miss the natural beauty.

Mount Si gets all the postcard shots and for good reason, but you will be awed by the size of Rattlesnake Mountain and the allure of the Ledge. The Snoqualmie River and its three forks meander through town, and the local Elk Herd are a joy to see every day!

Reason #2 Accessibility when living in North Bend

One of the best aspects of living in North Bend is the accessibility to other cities and regions in Washington state.

You have four exits for town off of Interstate 90. You can drive West to Seattle, Bellevue, and the airport all in less than 40 minutes. If you need to commute you have homes to choose from that you won’t see a stop light until your final destination.

Need to head East? Easy peezy. Jump on I90 and before your kids finish their favorite cartoon episode you’ll be over Snoqualmie Pass on the way to Eastern Washington and beyond.

Reason# 3-Shopping Local in North Bend

Another great reason to live In North Bend is that we are blessed to have thriving local businesses and a downtown that draws visitors year round.

When you live in North Bend you can truly shop local and have a positive impact on your neighbors and community. I can’t stress enough how awesome it is to have businesses owned and staffed by local residents.

Reason #4-Outdoor Activities around North Bend

Up next in our list-Unlimited Outdoor Activities!

If you live in North Bend your access to trails and parks is unmatched. We have hundreds of miles of various types of trails and North Bend sits at the edge of wilderness with thousands of acres of public land minutes from your doorstep.

There is not one neighborhood in North Bend that you can’t walk or ride a bike to a trail, a park, or the river in 10 minutes or less.

Not only do we have awesome city parks but we live in the heart of the Mountains to Sound Greenway-a collection of over 3 million connected acres of accessible public lands-spanning from Ellensburg to Seattle. 

The gem of this public land...Is the Middle Fork Valley-a wild and scenic treasure! 

It's hard to overstate the beauty and year round fun you can enjoy when you live in North Bend. 

Don’t forget that Snoqualmie Pass is less than 30 minutes away where your snow sports are waiting!

The year round outdoor recreation available is easily the biggest reason my family loves living here.

Reason 5: Excellent School District

Another great reason to live in North Bend are the schools. The Snoqualmie Valley School District serves North Bend families and students. 

In North Bend there are two elementary schools-Opstad Elementary School and North Bend Elementary School, one middle school-Twin Falls, and all students feed to Mount Si High School. Which was recently completely remodeled and is amazing!

The students have incredible opportunities for success in academics, the arts, and athletics. And every campus has stunning views of the mountains.

And the added bonus of being a one high school district really gets full community support.
