pportunities are a natural resource in Everett. Economic. Educational. Cultural. Recreational. Propelled by our industrial-strength commitment to innovative businesses, and inspired by a mountain-to-sea natural beauty that defies description, Everett’s residents work hard, play hard and live a life of choices. 

It’s not a coincidence that the rising creative class – the thinkers, innovators, inventors, and entrepreneurs fueling 21st century business – locate themselves and their ideas where there are cultural amenities, outdoor recreation opportunities and an urban setting rich in diversity. 

The Economic Development Department seeks to capitalize on these elements of enterprise to retain, revitalize and recruit businesses.
