    Living in Yakima, WA

    Nestled in the Yakima Valley, the eponymous small town is the perfect place to find an apartment to rent if you enjoy the great outdoors, good food and a slower-paced lifestyle. Yakima is a fast-growing city in the state of Washington that’s firmly anchored in agriculture. It is the main grower of hops in the U.S., along with vineyards and orchards. Renters in Yakima appreciate the low cost of living and easy access to nature-centered activities as diverse as hiking, skiing, fly-fishing, river floating, rock climbing, and more. However, renters should be aware that security can be a concern in Yakima. Assault, theft, and car theft levels are significantly above the national average and Yakima is home to an important homeless population. Therefore, renters should stay aware of their surroundings and always lock their cars and rental apartments.

    Things for renting

    Shopping in Yakima, WA

    Renters may be concerned about renting an apartment in a semi-rural community since it is often synonymous with limited access to amenities and spending significantly more time running errands because of the distances. However, in Yakima, your rental apartment will probably be within a couple of blocks of a grocery store. Safeway is the most popular grocery chain in Yakima and has several locations in town. Locally owned Wray’s Freshmarket IGA also boasts several stores in Yakima and is a favorite among locals. Renters will also recognize familiar names such as Fred Meyers and Target, while discount chain Grocery Outlet is catering to renters on a budget. Valley Mall, located in the nearby town of Union Gap, is the region's sole indoor mall and has more than 50 stores. Finally, with a region relying heavily on agriculture, it is no surprise that Yakima is also home to a weekly farmer’s market.

    Transportation in Yakima, WA

    Renters who enjoy exploring a city on foot rather than behind the wheel of their car will appreciate Yakima’s downtown area walkability. With an abundance of entertainment, quaint shops, and dining and drinking options to choose from, finding an apartment for rent in Downtown Yakima is your gateway to pleasant evenings while leaving your vehicle in the garage. However, outside of the core of town, most errands will still require a car. In addition, for renters who prefer using public transit, Yakima is home to a dense public bus transportation system, with several routes running throughout the town Monday through Saturday except on holidays.
