Northeast Tacoma is one of those neighborhoods that really stands alone. It is separated from the rest of Tacoma by Commencement Bay and at times, it can seem like an entirely different city. If you’re considering moving to the area, here are some great things to know about it.

Get Anywhere in 5 Minutes.
Just over four square miles, you’ll love being able to get anywhere in Northeast Tacoma within five minutes. Plus, the view along the main thoroughfare, Marine View Drive, borders the Puget Sound and offers the best of scenic driving.
It’s Booming!
Northeast Tacoma is one of Tacoma’s most affluent areas, second only to North Tacoma on the Ruston Waterfront.
The Most Suburban of All.
Because of its separation from the main part of the city, Northeast Tacoma is isolated from downtown urban life and is thriving with suburban amenities. It’s the perfect place for a family-oriented lifestyle.
Totally Unique Dining Experiences.
From the charming living-room type atmosphere at the Coffee and Cream Café to the wall of panoramic view-windows at the Cliff House Restaurant, there’s plenty of unique businesses to try out.
There’s Even A Lighthouse.
