Neighborhood Market Context
Shoreline is currently sitting around $760K median with 11.0 days on market and 1.6 months of supply.

What's Here
- Shoreline's station-area planning work is centered on the neighborhoods around the new light-rail stations and frames this corridor as part of the city's mobility and growth strategy.
- This is the part of Shoreline most directly tied to the evolving transit spine rather than to the Sound-side bluff identity or the interior park system.
Known For
