Types of apartment in Everett, WA

Everett has a wide mix of apartments, and the style changes a lot by area. Near downtown, Bayside, and the Port Gardner side, you can find older brick and wood-frame apartments, small courtyard buildings, and divided houses for rent. Many have simple siding, narrow entry stairs, and shared parking off alleys or side lots. Around Riverside and Delta, apartments often sit in low-rise buildings from the mid-century period, with flat roofs, broad windows, and practical layouts. Interiors in these places can include galley kitchens, baseboard heat, and less storage, but the buildings often sit close to bus lines and commercial streets.
North Everett has more older houses for rent, including Craftsman and bungalow styles with porches, detached garages, and larger lots. Around Silver Lake, Cascade View, and the south end near Everett Mall, many apartments are in newer garden-style or mixed-use buildings with vinyl siding, exterior staircases, and larger parking areas. These apartments often have in-unit laundry, bigger closets, and open kitchens, but they can feel more car-oriented. Along Mukilteo Boulevard and near Howarth Park, some rentals sit in older hillside buildings where stairs, sloped lots, and limited guest parking can be part of the tradeoff.

Getting around Everett, WA

Everett Transit, the local bus service, and Community Transit, the regional bus system, cover much of the city. Sounder commuter rail and Amtrak stop at Everett Station downtown. Driving is straightforward on Broadway, Evergreen Way, and I-5, but traffic can build near the mall and Marine View Drive. Parking varies by area. Downtown and north Everett can have tighter street parking, while south Everett apartments often have larger lots. Walking works better near downtown, and biking can be uneven because of hills.
