Description:
Seattle was built here—on the hillside where Henry Yesler powered the city’s first sawmill. That same spirit of hard work and community still defines First Hill today. The Mill honors that legacy by offering dependable, well-located housing for people who keep the city moving.
We also believe housing should be accessible. That’s why The Mill offers homes at 60% and 80% of the Area Median Income (AMI) for King County. Prospective residents must meet specific income criteria and provide documentation for initial certification, with annual recertifications required.
