Schools and Getting Around

Many Chambers Creek homes are in the University Place School District, but some streets on this side of the city are served by Tacoma Public Schools instead, so check the assigned schools for each address. Bridgeport Way runs north to the Town Center and south to Lakewood, and downtown Tacoma is a short drive.

Before You Buy

• Confirm the school district for the address.
• Ask whether the home is in an HOA, and get the CC&Rs and dues.
• For homes near the canyon or on a slope, ask about drainage and any limits on building near the creek.
