Moving to Everett...any suggestions
My husband received orders to be in Everett in few weeks. We are looking for a place to stay and we were wondering what areas would be best/safest to live in. He will be stationed in Everett. Does anyone have any suggestions as to which apartment complexes are best? We will be moving from Hawaii and we aren't able to check the place out ahead of time with the last minute orders.

I live in Washington and live very close to housing that house a lot of military families. This location is called Carroll Creek in Marysville. Good luck and welcome. I work very close to this housing complex and see a lot of the families at my dental office. I am an office manager. I am assuming that this will be much different than Hawaii.

I have lived in Snohomish County (south of Everett) for over 20 years. If you have any kids, I would strongly suggest looking in the Mukilteo, Edmonds, or Mill Creek area for a place. They have excellent schools and lots of apartment choices, many offering month to month for service members. If you don't have kids, or if this will only for the short term, your options are more open. If you would like, I would be happy to help in any way I can here in Edmonds. The last apt complex I lived in, Edmonds Highlands, was a very nice place, unfortunately, my building burned and I was forced to move. I had been there for over 10 years. The buildings are well maintained, not total cracker boxes(925-985 sq ft for a 2 bd ?), low crime, neighbors are friendly as well. Let me know if I can answer any questions for you.
