Neighborhoods

Renton is a wonderful place to live with terrific neighborhoods, friendly people, diverse housing choices, and beautiful parks.  The City recognizes and supports our neighborhoods as one of the primary reasons Renton residents enjoy such a high quality of life.

The Neighborhood Program is a means for the City to successfully maintain good lines of communication with citizens, as well as help citizens undertake improvements or beautification projects through neighborhood grants.  Neighborhood picnics also help foster community ties by bringing neighbors together for food and fun.

The Neighborhood Program has an exciting new full color brochure that is available as a PDF.
