      Since Lynnwood is a sub-urban, the great things about it are the safe, clean, and peaceful environment. People are very friendly and goods are pretty affordable. It is not like a city, where I used to live. I prefer lively neighborhood, but Lynnwood is a really good place to study.

      I live in Washington and it's known for its rain for a reason. The last few winters have been really mild with the snow activity, but the rain never stops so we do have a lot of rain and wind storms and we also recently had the Oso mud slide. The fall is cold but very colorful also a lot of rain. Spring and summer are also pretty mild our hottest days are about 85-90 degrees. You never really know what the weathers going be like so you always have back up jackets and an umbrella on hold, but the summers are pretty hot too. I do know that the Seattle area sits on a tectonic plate and we have been due for an earthquake for a while now, but the natural disasters are pretty minimal.
      As a student and a teen it is really hard for me to find a job that fits me, works with my schedule, and pays a decent amount. Most the students/teens get stuck at a minimum wage fast food job, or even just working in the mall. It's an ok start for some of us, but a lot of us also don't enjoy what we do and its hard to get buy with the little money we make. I feel like the variety and options for jobs are really low. Not just for the younger generations but for everyone.
