"A newly cleaned up neighborhood"

Roosevelt is a neighborhood in Bellingham that has benefited from community improvements that have lowered crime rate and cleaned up the local parks.

Alabama Street cuts this neighborhood in half with mostly residential homes and duplexes. Many college students rent here as well as more permanent residents further up Alabama Hill. More people are moving to this area to stay rather than rent in the recent past. Many existing homes are renovated and the neighborhood become more attractive with each one.

Roosevelt Park is a newly renovated park and has a playground, large fields, basketball courts and public bathrooms. Pacific Trails Park also lies within neighborhood boundaries, and Whatcom Falls Park. Whatcom Falls is a sprawling, shady city park with playgrounds, fishing ponds, trails and courts.

Right in the middle of Roosevelt there is a 7-Eleven, Gas station, pharmacy, Mexican restaurant, and others. Only a couple of minutes away on Iowa Street you can find many car dealerships and other commercial businesses. Haggen grocery can be found in Barkely Village just a couple blocks away.
