Historically homes in South King County have proven more affordable for Employees relocating to the Puget Sound because of their being further distanced from the Metropolitan areas of Seattle and Bellevue.
Maple Valley has long been an attractive alternative to the Bellevue/Eastside area for relocating families due to the strength of the Tahoma School District and lower prices.
As a convenience for those researching South King County markets, I’ve compiled a side by side comparison of various information from school districts which include: Auburn, Kent, Renton, Federal Way, Enumclaw and Tahoma (Maple Valley).
At every grade and subject level but one, Tahoma WASL Scores were higher than all South King County districts.
