Want An Affordable House? Try Downtown Enumclaw

ENUMCLAW, WA - If you're sick of the insane home prices in Seattle and on the Eastside, head south.

No, not Kent or even Federal Way. Downtown Enumclaw, with its restaurants and shops, might be your best option.

It's far - about 37 miles by car to downtown Seattle - but you don't have to drive. King County's DART route 915 provides a 30-minute shuttle to the Auburn Sounder train station. All told, you're looking at a little over an hour commute to Seattle by bus and train, which is probably a lot quicker than driving.

Not to mention, the homes are affordable. Check out this large home for sale just four blocks from the closest 915 stop.
