Clyde Hill, Washington
Population: 2,972
Located in King County
Clyde Hill was formed as a low-density residential community. Over the years Clyde Hill has developed an established large lot residential development pattern. Today the philosophy of the City is to retain and maintain the original spacious and wooded character of the community and to remain a relatively small, simple and intimate community. The amenities, the quality residential areas, the parks, the views and natural landscape are all items the community intends to maintain. Clyde Hill was incorporated in 1953 as a small residential town covering an area of approximately one square mile. The City is bordered by Points Drive to the north, on the south by NE 12th and NE 13th Streets, on the west by 84th Avenue NE and on the east by 98th Avenue NE. The City is zoned single family residential with the exception of a gas station on the corner of 84th Avenue NE and Points Drive, and a Tully's Coffee establishment located on Points Drive and NE 28th Street. The minimum lot size allowed in the zoning code is 20,000 square feet, with smaller lots existing from before incorporation. Clyde Hill has a total area of about 632 acres with a population of 2,890 according to the 2000 Special Census. While the City is a separate incorporated municipality, it has the character, function and land use pattern typical of an established residential neighborhood usually found within larger cities. Clyde Hill is in the middle of a rapidly developing metropolitan area, shares its eastern boundary with the City of Bellevue (the state's fifth largest city), and is one of the smaller communities in King County. The land use mix supports the neighborhood character: two small retail establishments and schools surrounded by single family residential development. A Land Use Inventory chart illustrates the City's development pattern.
