About Bellwether Housing
Bellwether Housing was founded in 1980 to create housing for lower wage workers to have access to safe, affordable housing close to their jobs. After nearly 40 years of success and growth, Bellwether is the Pacific Northwest’s largest nonprofit affordable housing provider.
Today, we serve over 3,200 residents in 2,100 homes and we have over 1,000 homes in development. By locating our buildings near transit, workplaces, schools and other amenities, Bellwether puts greater opportunity within reach of our residents. This way, our residents – families, large and small, households recovering from homelessness, seniors, immigrants, preschool teachers and social workers, and young people just starting out - have access to the opportunity and prosperity of our region and, in turn, cultivate a more vibrant and equitable city.
