Bellingham's Sunnyland Neighborhood

By
Real Estate Agent with eXp Realty
  The Sunnyland Neighborhood is one of Bellingham's diverse neighborhoods. It consists of industrial an area(some located in older homes) which dominate the southern third of the neighborhood. Multifamily and single family areas surround a newly remodelled neighborhood commercial area at the Alabama/James Street intersection, where Trader Joe's has brought new life to a languishing commercial center. This neighborhood also includes open space and play fields at the reconstructed Bellingham High School, Sunnyland Park, Sunnyland Elementary School and adjacent Memorial Park.

The northern section of the neighborhood has low density residential uses, and the western part higher density residential uses. The residential character of this neighborhood is generally one of single family two-story older homes, with many long time residents.

Michael, I'm not surprised that Trader Joe's has invigorated the area.  What a fantastic store!  I love shopping there with their great prices, interesting selection, and fun atmosphere.  My mother-in-law is practically a cheerleader for the store.  She's always raving at her dinners, that this or that came from Trader Joe's.

Are her Trader Joe's dinners any better then her non TJ dinners. It is good to see the neighborhood benefit from a new retail outlet.

I love trader joes!  I used to go to a gym that was right next to it until we moved, but I wish they would open one up closer to my home now!
