About Heritage Hills
Heritage Hills sits on the west side of Selah, climbing up the slope above the city. It's the part of town most often described as the "newer side of Selah" — a neighborhood of custom and semi-custom builds, larger floor plans, quiet cul-de-sacs, and view lots that pull in the Yakima Valley floor and the surrounding ridgelines.
The neighborhood is in-boundary for the Selah School District, which serves roughly 3,800 students across John Campbell Primary, Selah Intermediate, Selah Middle School, and Selah High School. That school feeder is one of the strongest reasons buyers seek Heritage Hills specifically over the rest of the Yakima Valley.
Current pricing & market context
Heritage Hills typically transacts in the $500,000–$850,000 range, well above the Selah city median. That premium reflects three things: newer construction, view lots, and proximity to top-rated schools.
For context, here's where the broader Selah market sits heading into spring 2026:
Selah's market is firm rather than frothy. Zillow's ZHVI puts the typical home value near $435,247 (up 2.8% YoY as of March 2026), while Movoto's snapshot of about 116 active listings shows a city-wide list-price average around $414,000. Heritage Hills sits at the top of that range — the homes pulling the average up.

How Heritage Hills compares to the rest of Selah
Selah Heights ($330K–$500K) is the established in-town neighborhood around the Selah Civic Center and Wixson Park. Walkable to schools, mature trees, mid-century stock with updated examples — the entry point to "in-Selah" living.
Wenas Valley ($450K–$1.2M+) is the rural valley northwest of Selah — acreage parcels, small farms, equestrian-friendly land, orchard estates surrounded by the Wenas Wildlife Area. Where buyers go for privacy and land.
Heritage Hills sits between those two: closer in than Wenas Valley, newer than Selah Heights, and almost always at a higher price point than either.
