The center of Burien, located 3 miles southwest, offers a walkable downtown with locally owned restaurants and shops, including La Rielera, a Mexican restaurant, and Flight Path, a burger bar with live music. For grocery needs, Safeway is less than 2 miles west, and Luciana’s Market offers a variety of goods on Des Moines Memorial Drive. The neighborhood has a lower crime risk compared to the national average, contributing to its appeal for potential residents.
