Tacoma Real Estate
Tacoma, Washington is a thriving port city near inner Puget Sound, and an economic hub for the Pacific Northwest. Since its establishment as the western terminus of the Northern Pacific Railroad in the late 1800s, Tacoma has supported many local industries, including shipping, manufacturing, agriculture, and more recently tourism and retail. Downtown Tacoma offers an exciting northwest cultural experience, with dozens of galleries, museums, and theatres showcasing the region's best art and drama, as well as a wide variety of fine urban retail destinations, clubs, and dining spots. Tacoma's heritage as an important railway city has given way to a strong public transit system serviced by buses, commuter rail, light rail, and ferries.
