Buckley is a secluded spot on the outskirts of Tacoma
If you’re looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of city life, Buckley is the perfect combination of cozy neighborhood and fantastic natural sights just 11 miles outside of Tacoma. “Buckley is a very nice little town that’s also a quiet area to live in,” says Ruben Gonzalez, a real estate broker with Riley Jackson Real Estate who has almost 20 years of industry experience. “It’s a very dense area, but the views are great.” Residents can enjoy the babbling brooks of the White River, plus the magnificent views of Mount Rainer off in the distance – all from the comfort of their homes. Buckley is a compact town located along Highway 410, with grid streets that expand outward as you move further into the countryside. Once you travel past Ryan Road and move towards the creek, houses get more spread out with larger lawns and thick wooded areas. There isn't much in the neighborhood itself, so you will need to travel by car to get to places.

Hop on at the large entrance by the Buckley Youth Activity Center and head towards the Buckley Basketball & Pickleball Court that you can find along it.
