Living in Everett, Washington is very scary. It has the worst drug problem around and I heard that from King 5 news! I live in the heart of the problem. It used to be a beautiful city, you would never have a problem taking a walk in the daytime or even in the evening time sometimes. But today, Everett is very scary, day or night. It does not matter what time of day. If you use public transportation, the risks of danger increase dramatically. I would love to see this change, the homeless find housing or some help. Make Everett beautiful like it once was before!
Living in the Delta neighborhood of Everett for the last 3 years has been eyeopening. Lots of crime. Someone tried to steal both the tries and license plates off of my car in the night. My windows were smashed and car ransacked. Never keep valuables in your car! Beyond that, there is also violent crime. Someone was shot a block away from us. A child was hit by a car in a hit and run in the block my child walks home from school. There is a very apparent wealth disparity in Everett. Some houses look lovely and just down the street everything looks jacked up. So excited to move away for the safety of myself and my kid. Its also creeping up in cost of living. What was once an affordable part of snohomish county is starting to price out the working class. The only positives are the diversity, the food, and the access to nature.
I've lived in Everett since 1996 and have seen the city change for the better and then fall back to worse than before. We have the typical problems with drugs and the homelessness it causes seen everywhere else. The city has recently been unable to keep up with graffito and garbage cleanup and it's starting to look rather shabby. You have to keep everything locked up or it will walk off. Shopping carts are everywhere. Security cameras are a must. The taxes are high and going higher like every "progressive" city on the west coast. I'd give the high school downtown a B but it's much better than the other HS's in Everett. Most of the teachers and support staff are great and genuinely care about education. My child, a very recent graduate, felt safe going there. The population is very culturally diverse. We have two good hospitals and many clinics with easy access. The views of Puget sound are beautiful and we have many parks and bike paths.
