About us

Bellevue is the fifth largest city in Washington, with a population of more than 150,000. It is the high-tech and retail center of the Eastside, with more than 150,000 jobs around the city and a skyline of gleaming high-rises. You can learn a lot about the city from news releases, the It's Your City newsletter and Bellevue Television. While business booms downtown, much of Bellevue retains a small-town feel, with thriving, woodsy neighborhoods and a vast network of green spaces and recreational facilities that keep people calling the place "a city in a park." The city's schools are consistently rated among the best in the country. Sales at local shopping complexes are always an attraction, and arts and crafts fairs one weekend in July draw thousands each year. During the holiday season, the Garden d'Lights display at the Bellevue Botanical Garden attracts visitors from far and wide. Artists from around the country enter striking new works in the annual Bellwether arts fair. The city spans more than 31 square miles between Lake Washington and Lake Sammamish, and is a short drive from the Cascade Mountains. People can kayak within sight of downtown in the Mercer Slough Nature Park, a 320-acre wetland preserve.

  What am I supposed to do with my Wednesday nights now? Bellevue Essentials is officially over. It was an honor to represent my cohort as the class speaker. My class surprised me at the end with the perfect gift. A signed book on the first 100 years of Bellevue. 🥹🥰 Julie, Mark, Sarina and all city staff are to thank here for their incredible dedication. It was an exciting night with words from the Mayor, Deputy Mayor, and city Manager. Alongside David Bowling. Here’s to Bellevue’s future!

  A big milestone occurred in Bellevue on October 22! The City Council adopted the periodic update to the city’s Comprehensive Plan. The updated plan is based on significant engagement with the community over the past 2.5 years with input from all city boards and commissions. Last substantially updated in 2015, this plan is a foundational document that will guide growth and development in Bellevue over the next 20 years.
  
• Next stop: sustainable travel options for your employees or commercial tenants. At a Nov. 19 (1 p.m.) Choose Your Way Bellevue webinar, property managers and employers in Bellevue will learn how to help staff use public transit such as light rail or carpools/vanpools to commute. The 50-minute session will feature Arthur Bachus from Sound Transit, who will provide the latest on the 2 Line into downtown Redmond and Seattle. You can also learn about Choose Your Way Bellevue's mini-grants and other free programs to help your business thrive. There will be exclusive rewards for attendees.
