Rating 3.69 out of 5 98 reviews
I have lived in Snohomish County my entire life. Although no where is perfect, I love it here. I cannot imagine living anywhere else. The nature is beautiful, The people are diverse, and we have everything from high-end outlets like Micheal Kors, Coach, Gucci, all the way to camping store like REI and Cabela's. There's also high paying jobs such as Microsoft and Boeing.
The only negitive thing I have to say, is we do have a large homeless population. They mostly seem harmless, but it is sad to see so many unfortunate people.

Very small, tight knit community where most people get along. Downtown Snohomish is very fun as there are lots of little local shops that have been around forever. There are two main schools that compete in sports very competitively but the kids at the schools get along very well. All around, Snohomish is a great, small town, it was actually in the running for best small town in the country last year.
The school system is Marysville makes me a little nervous. I also wish swimming lessons weren't so difficult to get into. Health Care is overall pretty good but there are long waits for every specialist.
