BELLEVUE KCHA TWENTY-TWO-SITE REVIEW — https://www.kcha.org/housing/city.aspx?city=bellevue, KCHA's 27 Bellevue category cards and their detail pages, reviewed September 30, 2026. Thirteen subsidized, two other-rental and twelve moderate-income cards represent 22 distinct named communities: Bellepark East (16241 N.E. 13th Place); Bellevue Houses (scattered locations; no single pin); Bellevue Manor (143 Bellevue Way SE); College Place (1249 145th Place S.E.); Eastside Terrace (704 147th Place N.E.); Hidden Village (14508 S.E. 24th St.); Illahee (14049 NE Bel-Red Rd.); Landmark (16330 N.E. 11th St.); Newport (12646 S.E. 42nd St.); Newporter (5900 119th Ave. S.E.); Spiritwood Manor (1424 148th Ave SE); Timberwood (3809 148th Ave. N.E.); Woodside East (16240 N.E. 14th St.); Cascadian (15517 N.E. 12th St.); Somerset Gardens (14700 N.E. 29th Place); Carrington (2501 148th Ave. SE); Hampton Greens (4747 148th Ave NE); Highland Village (14588 NE 7th Place #100); Kendall Ridge (15301 NE 20th St); Pinewood Village (14911 NE 1st Pl); Sandpiper East (1312 139th Ave. NE); Surrey Downs (13035 SE 26th St.). Bellepark East, Landmark, Newporter, Timberwood and Woodside East appear under both subsidized and moderate-income programs; each has ONE site listing containing two separately sourced program inventories, not two different residences. The supplied “units” counts and detailed bedroom mixes are inventory, NOT vacancies. Bellevue Houses is a group of eight scattered residences and has no known single home address. KCHA https://www.kcha.org/housing/apply says the HCV and subsidized/public-housing waiting lists are closed. Subsidized detail pages mark their properties not currently accepting applications. KCHA https://www.kcha.org/housing/other and https://www.kcha.org/housing/moderate direct applicants to each manager for other/moderate-income rentals, whose list and vacancy status must be confirmed. Some individual detail pages describe Section 8 voucher acceptance even though general program guidance may differ; verify by unit with the manager. The manager contact for Newport is in Renton but its Bellevue residence is at 12646 SE 42nd St; Bellevue Houses' College Place office address is not a home address. Call KCHA's Central Applications Center at (206) 574-1248 for subsidized-list updates; a city-card application link is not proof applications are open. No listing establishes felony acceptance.
