In the International District, this itty-bitty one-bedroom in the historic Milwaukee Hotel is renting for $975 per month. No word on pets, but it’s near so much transit: multiple bus lines, light rail, and the streetcar. While it’s small, it has a bathtub—and a built-in, fold-down table in the kitchen helps save space.

Head to West Seattle for this one-bedroom in a five-plex near the Morgan Junction for $950 per month. It has a fireplace and a patio, and it has off-street parking (but it’s also on the C line). The bad news: There’s no laundry available, not even shared laundry, so off to one of only two West Seattle laundromats for you. No word on pets.

This University District studio in a newer building has 10-foot ceilings, bamboo floors, and a loft bed. It just has a kitchenette, but that includes a small cooktop. It’s on multiple bus lines and right by a ton of grocery stores. $995 per month comes with internet, and cats can come, too.
