Resting on the southern shores of beautiful Lake Washington, Renton residents enjoy easy access to both Seattle and Bellevue while living in a close-knit, friendly town. An outstanding citizen spirit and a city government dedicated to creating desirable amenities combine to foster a feeling of community.
Incorporated in 1901 and comprising over 17 miles, Renton is home to over 55,000 people. Boeing supplies more than 30% of the jobs for Renton residents, and other manufacturing and industrial companies provide work for many more. With such close proximity to both Seattle and Bellevue, Renton offers a high quality of life for those who commute to those cities—at a much lower cost.
Renton is surrounded by natural beauty. Many homes for sale in the Renton Highlands feature views of the Olympic and Cascade Mountains, Mt. Rainier, or downtown Seattle. Waterfront real estate on Lake Washington provides easy access to boating, fishing, and swimming. The Cedar River, which runs through the middle of Renton, is celebrated during Renton River Days each summer.
