| The largest city on the Eastside and the fifth largest in Washington State, Bellevue is a city committed to preserving its quality of life. Bellevue understands that only a strong sense of community, one filled with arts, music and family spirit will keep its citizens connected and ensure a healthy and vibrant future economy.
Bellevue incorporates 31 square miles between the pristine waters of Lake Sammamish and Lake Washington. Quiet wooded neighborhoods and parks flourish between high-rise office complexes, elegant retail shops and new condominiums.
Downtown Bellevue is a collage of high-rises, public parks, museums and excellent shopping. It is the urban heart of the Eastside and is going through a boom of new apartments, condominiums and office towers. Bellevue Square Mall, arguably the shopping capital of the Northwest, is located here.
