Skyway (neighborhood)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Skyway is a neighborhood in western Washington state. It refers to an unincorporated area of King County roughly between the cities of Seattle and Renton. Though it is surrounded by major municipalities, its limited infrastructure and low-income demographics have made it an unattractive area to incorporate. It is frequently along the shortest route of travel for commuters using local streets to enter Seattle from the southeast. The name "Skyway" may be derived from the area's correspondence with a high ridge in western Washington's hilly terrain.
