Located between Bellevue and Seattle, this quaint city boasts several parks and outdoor spaces along with residents who are very engaged in the community, whether it’s during the Medina Days festival or the annual holiday giving program. Anna Riley, broker with Windermere Realty and 25-year resident of the community, says, “Medina has a tremendous amount of natural beauty around with views of Mt. Rainier, Lake Washington and more. She then adds that the preservation of the parks and nature sites around the city makes for “a super exceptional quality of life” for residents.

There’s plenty of natural beauty around Medina if you want to get out for some fresh air. Residents can start their morning with a stroll around the ponds of the city’s namesake park: Medina Park. The park is popular amongst dog walkers for its off-leash dog area and for parents who want to bring their children for a game of catch or for a picnic. Residents are also just minutes away from relaxing on the sandy shores of Medina Beach Park, which offers a serene atmosphere with a scenic sunset view. You can work on your tennis swing on one of the courts at the Fairweather Nature Preserve or walk along the forest landscape of the nature trails.
