Travel

Proximity to Large Cities

Amenities & Services

Bellingham has a decent-sized airport: you might have to take a flight from Bellingham to Seattle to reach some of your destinations. But Bellingham-based airlines offer many direct flights to warm-weather locations, including several cities in California and Arizona, and occasionally in Hawaii. And there are plenty of other options, with direct national and international flights from Vancouver, Seattle & Paine Field in Everett.

Less Traffic

Who Else Thinks Bellingham is Great?

Hospital & Medical Services

If you talk to anyone who has lived in Bellingham for more than 5 years, they will likely whine about the traffic. But the reality is our traffic is trivial, compared to cities to our south and north.


Hospital & Medical Services

Who Else Thinks Bellingham is Great?

Hospital & Medical Services

Bellingham has an impressive regional hospital, for three reasons. First, we have a lot of retirees in Bellingham, who need more medical services. Second, Canadians come down to Bellingham when their socialized medicine means they will have to wait longer than they want for care. Third, medical providers also want to live in Bellingham, so we are attracting medical talent.
