Moving in The Emerald City? Lean on our team of city moving and storage experts. PODS City Service is now available in select parts of Seattle.

Seattle borders Puget Sound and is perhaps best-known for its Space Needle, which is a major landmark erected in 1962 as part of the World's Fair. The city is also prominent for its significance to the tech industry. Microsoft and Amazon both call the area home. Like many thriving cities, the best neighborhoods in Seattle are full of great schools, thriving housing markets with properties that have increased in value recently, many attractions to keep you entertained, and opportunities to integrate with the local community. One of the major benefits of moving to Washington state is the beautiful scenery, so don't forget to take advantage of the many hiking trails and outdoor activities near Seattle.

Each corner of Seattle has its own distinct charm, so you’ll want to do some research before settling down. The bustling downtown Seattle area has everything you’d want from a big city, including close proximity to the Waterfront area which has an excellent view of the bay and islands. Northwest of downtown is the family-friendly neighborhood of Queen Anne, which has plenty of parks and outdoor spaces to enjoy. 

If a thriving art community is more your scene, check out Pioneer Square. With numerous galleries, local coffee shops and an exciting nightlife, there’s always something going on to inspire creativity. No matter where you end up living in Seattle, PODS moving and storage options can help simplify the moving process.
