I always love to try and give new Seattle relocation clients boundaries of neighborhoods. Some of Seattle's neighborhoods are easily delineated, but others are not so much so. I know many Greenwood people like to say Green Lake if they think it will get them more buyers - same with Maple Leaf. Phinney Ridge is another one.
I love Phinney Ridge! It is nestled right between Green Lake and Ballard and I always get a kick out of where people say one starts and the other ends... I personally consider 3rd Ave NW to be my cut off point, but I know a lot of people on both sides of that line that are sure they are in the other neighborhood. I have even seen it discussed online in a neighborhood forum.
Both Ballard and Phinney Ridge are wonderful neighborhoods - maybe being able to walk up the hill to the Phinney Zeek's means that you truly do live in Phinney Ridge? Nice to have the best of both worlds though with all that Ballard has to offer, too!

About Me:
Seattle real estate has been a big part of my life for well over a decade since I began my career in real estate,but also before that time when I was in the process of purchasing my own first home. Buying your first home can be quite overwhelming,but I have managed to help many first time home buyers along the way.
Move up Seattle buyers and other types of specialized purchasing is a great passion of mine! I love Seattle houseboats and you can find me down on the docks of Lake Union and Portage Bay several times a week. Other aspects of Seattle real estate that I adore include Queen Anne Real Estate,Wallingford Real Estate, Ballard Real Estate, Green Lake Real Estate, Laurelhurst Real Estate, Magnolia Real Estate,andSeattle Waterfront Real Estate.
In addition to being a Seattle residential broker and founder of Cooper Jacobs & Seattle Afloat, I am also a member of CBA (Commercial Brokers Association) and head of the Cooper Jacobs Commercial Division in an effort to provide excellent commercial real estate services to the Seattle commercial real estate industry. With a background in accounting and management, it is my great pleasure to coordinate our Seattle commercial brokers.

I just love Seattle! My sister used to live somewhere near or in Ballard, and what a view she had!
Courtney- I was up at the zoo on Friday for the first time in years! I forgot just how great Phinney Ridge is. Seattle does have some amazing neighborhoods....I also forgot about the traffic too =)
Best,
Scott
