Living in Downtown Bellevue offers a vibrant and safe urban lifestyle with an abundance of shops, restaurants, a booming tech corridor and a plethora of cultural attractions. Having lived in downtown Bellevue myself, I can attest to the ease of public transportation, convenient, free parking and the clean, relatively crime-free, walkable retail areas that encourage both fun shopping excursions and excellent dining experiences.
Downtown Bellevue has quickly matured into a major economic hub, hosting numerous technology companies like Amazon and Meta, high-end shopping experiences like The Bellevue Collection and The Bravern, and luxury hotel and dining accommodations like the soon-to-open Intercontinental Hotel. Don’t miss Downtown Bellevue’s vibrant arts and cultural scene! Venues like Bellevue Arts Museum (BAM) installations, live music nights and numerous public events and festivals are hosted downtown throughout the year, with the fan-favorite being our holiday celebration “Snowflake Lane” that runs nightly from November through December each year!
