Moving to Seattle

So I'm taking a bit of a plunge and moving from Colorado Springs to Seattle, WA (Seattle "wahhh") in about ..two weeks. I'm going to be keeping my job with the people I work with here but from the office in Bellevue. I'm hoping to phase it more and more to working from home.

So - any suggestions on nice places to live somewhat near Bellevue, or at least within a decent bus ride of Bellevue? I'm looking to spend $1400 or less a month, renting (ideally) a 3BR place for 2. Being super close to Bellevue isn't as critical as being in a place I can walk/bicycle to a lot of places, because I'm used to really sprawling cities and I want to be able to get the "hey, lets walk to x or y or z" sort of place, which I hear Seattle is, because it's so densely packed.

Is driving across the bridges (Lake Washington) really as bad as they say for traffic? Any other tips for me? Also, are there many local TFPers there?
