In the middle of the city, Cascade View is relaxed suburbia
Cascade View embraces relaxed suburbia in the middle of the city. Mountlake Terrace has expanded to include new housing developments and updated transportation routes, like a Sound Transit light rail. City planners expect growth to double in the next 20 years - a rapid increase compared to other Snohomish County cities like Lynnwood and Edmonds. Modern amenities are turning the traditional Cascade View community into an eclectic mixed-use neighborhood in one of the fastest-growing cities on the north side of Seattle. "It has affordable housing with good lot sizes, and it's in the Edmonds school district," says Tiarrah Rintamaki, an area local and real estate broker at Keller Williams Greater Seattle. "It's desirable for first-time homebuyers and people starting their families."
New Traditional homes have started to pop up in subdivisions in the Cascade View neighborhood.
