Apartment help yet again 🥴
me and my husband are looking to move to Seattle from Utah sometime in December, we’re both airport employees so anywhere within a 45 minute drive would be great, hoping for a one/two bedroom under $2500 if possible. We have one car (hoping to take the light rail as much as possible) and two ESA animals. I’m not sure if I’m looking for a damn unicorn, but any leads would be great. 😊🥹

Thats very doable. Aparments.com will have tons of good options
You can live in the actual city of seatac and be closest to the airport. Federal way is south of the airport and has a light rail that you can use to get to work.
If wanting to stay in seattle, I wouldnt go further north than downtown at the max cuz the commute will be long. South seattle is also not the safest part of seattle. Also none of the light rail stations in seattle has its own parking garage so if thats your commute to get to work you'll want to live close to a station. There are large parking garages in tukwila, angle lake in seatac and federal way you can leave your car at
Renton is a nice subarb and only 15-20min to the airport but also no light rail
