About Student Housing in Tacoma
Tacoma is a mid-size city 35 miles south of Seattle, home to the University of Washington Tacoma, Pacific Lutheran University, and the University of Puget Sound. Its rental market is significantly more affordable than Seattle, and with the Sounder commuter train and increasing transit connections, some UW Seattle students commute from Tacoma to save money. The downtown and Stadium District neighborhoods near the campuses are going through genuine revitalization. Tacoma has the Pacific Northwest character of Seattle at a significant cost discount.

Stadium District / Near UW Tacoma

North End / Proctor District
More residential and walkable, near the University of Puget Sound and Pacific Lutheran commute corridor. Good neighborhood character.
