Proximity to Puget Sound and downtown Everett
View Ridge Madison lies south of Downtown Everett and rests on the western shores of Puget Sound. This suburban community is roughly 30 miles north of Seattle and earned its moniker from its scenic overlook of the Port Gardner Bay waterfront.
"Developers are beginning to put new neighborhoods in as buyers look to move to other cities outside of Seattle," says Becky Sommers, Broker at Kelly Right RE of Seattle. With a population of nearly 7,500 residents, Niche grants Madison an overall B grade and ranks it as the third-best neighborhood to live in Everett. Nightlife, diversity, outdoor activities and commuting earn the highest accolades.
Newly built homes, midcentury styles and specialized housing
A mix of traditional ranch styles, split levels and newly built homes characterize the housing landscape. Established homes typically range from $500,000 to $700,000, whereas newer or recently renovated homes, featuring spacious layouts, cost up to $900,000. Creekside Mobile Park caters to the 55+ community with manufactured homes priced between $130,000 and $175,000, conveniently located near Interstate 5. Homes in the area tend to sell quickly, spending an average of 14 days on the market, significantly shorter than the national average of 43 days.
Top-rated schools and youth theatre arts
Education begins at View Ridge Elementary, known for its A-minus score on Niche, and hosts the neighborhood association's monthly meetings. Students then transition to Evergreen Middle and eventually to Everett High. Everett High, situated on Colby Avenue, occupies a majestic early 20th-century building. This ornate Neoclassical structure is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Families with children will also discover several well-rated private education options nearby. Both secondary schools receive a B grade from Niche. Located a few miles north in Downtown Everett, the Village Theatre has provided entertainment to the community since 1979 and features KIDSTAGE, a youth program that holds classes and camps for kids in grades K-12.
Outdoor gathering spots, sledding hills and coastline views
Forest Park is a beloved community gathering spot, where children enjoy the playground or cool off in the splash pad during warm summer days. Its expansive landscape displays hundreds of acres of wooded trails, ideal for peaceful hikes. During snowy weather, the park's highest point transforms into a popular sledding hill. Tucked away at the base of a hill, Hannabrook Park offers a pet-friendly neighborhood green space complete with a playground, walking trails and a basketball court. For breathtaking coastline views and wildlife observation, Howarth Park Viewpoint is the go-to destination.
Shopping and dining along Evergreen Way and Downtown Everett
According to Sommers, Evergreen Way is south Everett's main, non-interstate connector, lodging a growing selection of retail strips and restaurants from Mexican to Mediterranean and well-known chains. Along with several smaller markets, Grocery Outlet is the spot for food essentials and produce. This area is known for its cultural diversity, well-reflected in the unique neighborhood eateries. Try the famed Crispy Pho at Janbo Café for a bite of local flavor. Locals rave about this no-frills eatery, serving a small menu of Vietnamese staples. Neighborhood mainstay Madison Avenue Pub is the local hot spot for live music and classic pub fare.
Downtown Everett is in continual growth, with modern housing, several employment centers and a thriving service industry, it is a hive for work and nightlife. "Downtown Everett is such a cool place – I prefer to go there than Downtown Seattle," says Sommers. Downtown hosts events such as Foodie Tuesdays in May, the Everett Art Walk, Pride Block Party and the Sip & Shop event, supporting local businesses.

in the area where I live I have everything I need very close, if I ever need groceries or if I need to go to the pharmacy its only a 2 min drive. I feel safe because I have several clinics and hospitals that are very close and are very helpful. The most popular place of course is the mall which includes a variety of stores,it is only 10 minutes away from my home.We also have the famous boeing company 5 minutes away which is very cool. I love living in the area I am because it has everything we need close by.

Everybody in this area of course do different things for living, there are a lot a of teachers since we live in a area of many elementary schools. There are somewhat a variety of job openings especially at fast food restaurants and stores at the mall. It just depends on the type of job that you would like.
