South Snohomish County

The inner-ring suburban corridor from Edmonds and Lynnwood through Mountlake Terrace, Mill Creek, and Bothell — the gateway between Seattle and Everett. The 2024 Lynnwood Link Extension brought light rail to this area, and the I-5/I-405 interchange makes it a natural crossroads for Eastside and Seattle commuters alike. Edmonds offers waterfront charm and a popular Kingston ferry terminal, while Lynnwood is transforming with transit-oriented development around its new City Center station.
