Seattle Condo Neighborhood Guide
First Hill Condos
Central location, medical district proximity, and solid value.
About First Hill
First Hill sits between Downtown and Capitol Hill, offering a central location at price points below both neighboring areas. The neighborhood is anchored by Seattle’s major medical institutions and connected to the rest of the city via light rail and bus transit.
What Makes First Hill Different
First Hill offers some of the best value in central Seattle. Condo prices here run 15-25% below comparable units in Downtown or Capitol Hill, while maintaining walkability scores in the 90s and direct access to multiple transit lines. The building inventory is a mix of established mid-rises and a few newer developments.
Who Should Consider First Hill
First Hill works well for buyers seeking central Seattle access at a more moderate price point. It is particularly attractive to medical professionals working at Swedish, Virginia Mason, or Harborview, and to buyers who want proximity to both Downtown and Capitol Hill without the premium pricing of either.
