ABOUT SNOHOMISH, WA
Snohomish City is a city in and is the namesake town of Snohomish County in Washington State. Known for its lush natural beauty and its acres upon acres of rural farmland, it has long been popular among families and people who live for the great outdoors. For many, it’s the perfect mix of country and city: it’s about 45 minutes from Seattle to the south but still has spades of space to offer, affordable housing, and that cozy small-town feel. There’s plenty of parks, recreational areas, and trails and back roads that pass by the gorgeous local farms. With 12 constituent neighborhoods and 10,185 people, it stands as the 91st largest community in Washington.
Fun Fact #1: Snohomians have a local version of Groundhog Day on February 2nd called Ground Frog Day, when local celebrity “Snohomish Slew” – frognosticator extraordinaire – makes his annual weather prediction.
While a small town in all respects, Snohomish is hardly “small” with its total area of 3.6 mi², a good portion covered by forests and farmlands. The rural landscape shapes much of the local industry and the nature of recreational spaces in the region. For one, U-Pick farms like Mountainview Blueberry Farm and The Farm at Swans Trail are popular destinations for families, friends, and couples from all over the state who come in droves toward the Fall, when these local delicacies are ripe for the picking. Those looking for more excitement usually go to Bob’s Corn and Pumpkin Farm and try to conquer the infamous 10-acre Corn Maze, and have fun picking pumpkins afterward.
Fun Fact #2: There are several haunted establishments across Snohomish, the most popular of which are the Oxford Saloon and the Cabbage Patch Restaurant – both of which still serve customers today!
Between the decently-sized homes and the abundance of potential outdoors activities, families have lots of motivation to move to Snohomish. Add these to the fact that Snohomish City has some of the best schools in the county and it’s easy to see how it’s one of the most family-friendly places in the state. For one, each classroom only has 22.7 students on average, and the local school district spends $14,334 per student, which is higher than the country’s average by a few thousand dollars. Snohomish High School, in particular, is not only an outstanding school in its own right, but is also cultural hub when it comes to local support of its highly competitive sports teams. Go Panthers!
Fun Fact #3: Snohomish used to be the county seat some 100 years ago. Rumor has it that one dreary night in 1896, a group of men on horse and buggy came from Everett, raided the county courthouse, and stole all records, making Everett the official county seat after that.
While the aphorism “small town, big heart” still rings true for the city, Snohomish is hardly the “backwaters” place it used to be 50 years ago. For one, the downtown area has no shortage of restaurants, shops, and amenities like Roger’s River View Bistro and the SnoTown Brewery, as well as dozens of shops where you can get lost while perusing antiques and trinkets of all kinds. If you’re looking to get some exercise, take your bike down to Centennial Trail, take the relaxing rural sights of flower fields and farms in, and have a hearty meal over at Trails End Taphouse & Restaurant at the end of the day. If a relaxing Sunday morning stroll is all you’re after, a trip to Lord Hill Regional Park is always an option.
Fun Fact #4: Snohomish is home to baseball Hall-of-Famer Earl Averill, whose estate donated a big patch of land as a playing field in the middle of the city, where Snohomish Skatepark now stands.
Roughly half of Snohomish homes are older, built around 1970-1999, though new construction has been picking up, especially in recent years. Most homes in Snohomish are detached single-family homes with 2 to 3 bedrooms, though apartment buildings and complexes are fairly common dwellings. The average cost of real estate stands at $455,138. Investors looking to grow some equity would be pleased to find that home appreciation rates are at an all-time high, up 118% from their values in 2000.
