Honestly not really, downtown Bellevue dies pretty hard on weekends due to it being primarily a business area. Seaport is more alive

Bellevue is for people that have a stick up in their a$$. If you’re young and like to go out, stick Queen Anne and Capitol Hill area. I wouldn’t go anything farther than greenlake area and Columbia city area. West seattle bridge is fixed now. I would rather be in west seattle than be in Bellevue.

Bellevue is the same model as McLean, Virginia.

How old are you? Are you married/single? Do you like to go out?

Very family like/ suburban feel

Not sure there’s anything like Seaport in Seattle

No, I wouldn't. Bellevue is suburban. Where do you live in Boston/what do you like about it? Have lived in both cities 🙂

North Seattle/ Edmonds/ Bothell/ Kirkland are great suburban areas.
