Commerce-driven neighborhood in Federal Way
Traffic comes from all directions in Kitts Corner, a commercial and industrial neighborhood about 4 miles south of Federal Way’s town center. Two highways and an interstate travel through the area, with businesses lined along each of them. “[The neighborhood] is convenient to everything – shopping, dining and downtown Seattle, so people can take day trips,” says Real Estate Agent Grace Wamwere with Champions Real Estate, who has almost 10 years of experience. The rest of the neighborhood’s landscape is comprised of large warehouses and office buildings, interspersed with apartment complexes and condominiums. The hustle-and-bustle lifestyle complements its central location.

Kitt Corner’s public transportation and highways
When it comes to getting around, the neighborhood’s narrow sidewalks create a somewhat pedestrian-friendly community – though other methods of transportation are preferred. “It’s walkable, but people like to drive their cars,” Wamwere says. Washington state Highway 99, known as Pacific Highway, acts as the area’s main thoroughfare with multiple Puget Sound Transit bus stops along it. With Interstate 5 to the east and Washington state Highway 18 in the south, Kitts Corner has multiple commuter routes. Additionally, the South Federal Way Park & Ride on WA-18 offers bus services from Pierce Transit.
In cases of medical emergencies, the St. Francis Hospital is less than a mile east of the neighborhood. The Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, known as SeaTac, is 16 miles away.
