It recently received recognition from Fortune Magazine as one of the “50 Best Places to Live for Families” and number 6 in their “25 Best Places to Retire Affordably” in the US! Primarily residential, Shoreline is home to over 62,000 residents and is known for its strong neighborhoods, excellent schools, and an abundance of parks. Bordering Seattle to the south and Puget Sound to the west, this proximity to both the vibrant city life of Seattle and the natural beauty of the Pacific Northwest makes Shoreline a highly desirable place to live for families, professionals, and outdoor enthusiasts alike.
