South Forest Park is a leafy pocket of Everett where sidewalks, mature trees, and well-cared-for homes create an easygoing, lived-in feel with quick access to I-5 and downtown employers. The neighborhood takes its name—and much of its personality—from Forest Park, a 197-acre destination for everyday workouts and weekend picnics. You’ll find trails, play areas, and seasonal fun at the beloved Animal Farm on the park’s grounds, plus year-round laps and lessons at the adjacent Forest Park Swim Center. Families and pet owners alike appreciate the space to roam.
Daily routines are simple here: local routes on Everett Transit connect you to shopping corridors and healthcare, while regional links at Everett Station make Seattle commutes and Amtrak trips straightforward. Cyclists and runners can hop on the Interurban Trail for miles of car-free movement. The neighborhood is served by Everett Public Schools, and the Everett Public Library enriches afternoons with story times, research tools, and community programs.
Weekends offer options in every direction—coastline breezes and aviation history near Mukilteo, aerospace hubs around Paine Field, and arts and dining across Snohomish County. Whether you’re drawn by mid-century architecture, park-front living, or a quick commute, South Forest Park balances convenience with a calm, green setting.
