"Mt.Baker is awesome if you work downtown or in Bellevue. Its a hidden gem!"

It is fantastic. The city is really investing in the area. Ballard, Greenwood, Innerbay etc are very expensive and take a long time to get to work downtown. Mt.Baker has it's own metro that only takes about 15 min to get to downtown. No one uses it. It's wonderful! Also, a few of my friends that work at Microsoft live there now. They can get across I90 to work without the tolls of 520 bridge. So if you need to zip to South Lake Union, downtown to work, or over to Bellevue its great!
