Bellevue commute is not bad at all if you work downtown as you can take the I-90 bridge. We used to live there before the kids were born and the commute was about 20 minutes. Now it's about 30 minutes. We live even further east now and our district has a terrible gifted program. The homes in Bellevue are really expensive because of their excellent schools.
SPSD is still okay for now but there's no guarantee what will happen down the road. Seattle has some pretty nutty politics, home of the homeless and heroine capital of America.
