Know your rights as a candidate and an employee:

The city

The job is in Bellevue, WA. Below is what the official statistics say about living and working there.

How Bellevue compares. Among the 80 largest places in Washington, Bellevue is #5 by population, #5 for college degrees (#1 = most), #75 for rent (#1 = cheapest), #7 for household income (#1 = highest). Its county, King County, is #1 of 39 counties for average pay ($132,279).

The place in numbers

Bellevue has 151,847 residents (ACS 2020–2024), about 1.9% of the population of Washington. It covers 33 square miles of land, which works out to roughly 4,537 people per square mile. The median age is 38.5, about the same as the state median (38.5 against 38.3).

Housing

The median gross rent is $2,572 a month (rent plus utilities), 46% above the state median ($2,572 against $1,760). Over a year that is 18.6% of the median household income. US housing guidance treats housing as affordable when it takes 30% of income or less, so the typical household is under that line. The median home value is $1,340,300, which is 8.1 times the median household income ($165,576); a ratio above 5 usually means buying is out of reach without savings or a second income. 52.0% of households own their home, 18% below the state average (52.0% against 63.8%).

Work and pay

The Seattle-Tacoma-Bellevue, WA metropolitan area has 2,086,210 jobs in the BLS wage survey, and the median pay across all occupations is $72,610 a year, 42% above the national median ($72,610 against $50,980). The biggest occupation groups are office and administrative support (212,900 jobs, median $59,660); business and financial operations (201,160 jobs, median $101,950); computer and mathematical (194,970 jobs, median $156,000). The area is most specialised in computer and mathematical (2.8 times) and architecture and engineering (1.4 times), where the share of workers is well above the national share. The best-paying groups with at least 5,000 jobs are management ($168,110) and computer and mathematical ($156,000). In 2026M09 the unemployment rate of King County was 4.8%. 67.0% of residents aged 16 and over are in the labour force. The city lies in King County; its jobs, pay by industry and GDP are on the county page.

Getting around

Among workers, 45.6% drive alone, 5.1% use public transit, 4.5% walk, 35.5% work from home. 11.1% of workers commute 45 minutes or more, 34% below the state average (11.1% against 16.9%). Remote work is more common than in the state as a whole, which widens the set of employers a resident can work for without moving.

People and education

72.1% of adults aged 25 and over hold a bachelor's degree or higher, 82% above the state share (72.1% against 39.6%). 43.5% of residents were born outside the United States, 181% above the state share (43.5% against 15.4%). The poverty rate is 7.2%, 27% below the state rate (7.2% against 9.9%).

Climate

The warmest month is Aug, averaging 63°F (17.1°C), and the coolest is Dec at 34°F (1.0°C). About 1,737 mm (68 inches) of precipitation falls in a year; Nov is the wettest month (256 mm) and Jul the driest (27 mm). These values come from NASA satellite-based climatology on a grid of about 50 km, so they describe the wider area, not a weather station in the city.
