Algona Homes For Sale – King County Real Estate Services

Algona, Washington, more commonly referred to by locals as the City of the Great Blue Heron, is a city which is part of the Seattle-Tacoma-Bellevue metropolitan area that was incorporated in 1955. The city’s small population of over 3,000 residents is quite diverse in ethnicities and occupations that include blue-collar production workers to white-collar professionals. Therefore, the poverty level in Algona is 13 percent less than the state average and is 24 percent less than the U.S. average due to the higher median household income of over $60,000.

Area builders provide high-quality construction, like Scott Homes (specializes in green homebuilding), JayMarc Homes(luxury designed homes), and Ventana Construction (specializing in custom design and remodeling). Employed residents usually commute to and from work (less than 30 minutes each way), and students attend schools in the nearby Federal Way, Washington school district.

The natural surroundings of the city allow for numerous trails and parks, but the area is also home to over two dozen specialty shops and dining venues. Several of the parks are free to the public and are open daily during daylight hours, but the most popular spot for local residents is the John Matchett Memorial Park (the former site of the old Algona Grade School). This reconstructed park is in close proximity of residential housing and has tennis courts, full playground facilities, and a baseball field. It is also the site of the annual Algona Days celebration every summer, and nearby Waffle Park is the site of the annual Holiday Tree Lighting ceremony every December.
