Everett Real Estate – Everett Homes for Sale
Once known as the City of Smokestacks, Everett Washington has been going through many redevelopment projects to improve the city’s stigma and appeal. Projects like the Everett Events Center, the Everett Marina Redevelopment and cleanup to downtown Broadway are just a few items that make the City of Everett appealing and nice place to live.
Everett has grown in population to become the State’s 6th largest city, the County’s 4th largest and the county seat. This growth has effected the commuting times and congestion but as we speak I-5, from Everett Mall Way to Highway 2, is going through a major upgrade with construction scheduled to be completed in 2008.
