Redmond, Washington was listed as one of the top neighborhood spots in the Seattle area in the July issue of Seattle magazine. The magazine did a pretty thorough study of what each city or neighborhood has that sets it apart from the other areas.  Redmond showed up on both of the magazine’s top ten lists.  One list included all neighborhoods and cities in the Seattle area, and one list was just suburban cities. Of the 110 top Seattle neighborhoods and suburban cities, Redmond came in at #6.  When compared to other suburban cities, Redmond came in at #4. 

The magazine found people who live in Redmond:

• Ride Horses
• Play soccer
• Rollerblade
• Play tennis
• Rock climb
• Race bicycles
• Walk
• and are often Techies.

Redmondites are a very smart, athletic bunch!
