    Wonderful place to raise a family! My children spend evenings playing with their neighborhood friends, walk to school and weekends bbqing, playing in the pool and having bonfires at the beach. We live like we are always on vacation!

    Great neighborhood for nature lovers! Close proximity to the beach and hiking trails. Fantastic schools, family friendly, easy commute to Whidbey Island and Boeing. Close to shopping and other conveniences, but feels far away from the city.
    I grew up in Mukilteo and I would half to say that it is a great town to start a family, mostly because the schools in Mukilteo are incredibly high rated and good in education. The restaurants here are also good and there is a nice golf course for those golfers out there. The only bad part about Mukilteo is that Golfing and walking on our small rocky beach are the only things you can do here for entertainment. Fortunately, the City boarders Lynnwood, Everett, and Edmonds, which all have fun things to do.
