Tacoma Overview

Tacoma, Washington is a bustling port city located about 45 minutes south of Seattle. It offers many of the benefits of living in a larger city, but apartments in Tacoma are more affordable. Give this city a closer look if you need a new home.

Why live in Tacoma, WA?

Tacoma may not be as flashy as Seattle, but it has a vibrant city scene of its own. It’s well-known for decorative glass, and the Tacoma Mural Project means that there are over 27 outdoor murals painted by local artists, giving the city a beautiful look and creative feel. Many view the city as a more affordable alternative to Seattle, and the money you save by living in apartments in Tacoma can be better used on the things you enjoy doing, whether that’s going for a night out on the town or heading out for an international getaway from the nearby SeaTac Airport.
