Lynnwood continues to feature the entrepreneurial spirit which built the city to the present day center of transportation and commerce. Just behind the hustle of busy arterial streets there are quiet neighborhoods surrounded by trees and shrubbery.

The city offers a wide range of governmental, commercial and educational services. Many federal, regional and state governmental offices have facilities in Lynnwood. Manufacturers and retailers are attracted to the area since it is serviced by major transportation corridors.

Incorporated in 1959, the city covers an area of 7.7 square miles, with more than 34,000 residents and more than 2,500 businesses. While quality commercial and governmental services are a necessary element of modern day life, the natural features which attracted the original settlers to this area remain the most important attractions for residents.

Less than 20 minutes from Lynnwood, boating, wildlife, white water rivers, salmon fishing, skiing, native timber and Indian culture are a welcome respite to city life. These are the natural features which continue to attract newcomers to our area to this very day.
