About Lake Stickney
Lake Stickney is an unincorporated census-designated place of 15,413 (2020 Census) built around its namesake small lake between Lynnwood and Everett. It is an affordable-by-comparison pocket of south Snohomish County: apartments and modest single-family homes along the I-5/Paine Field corridor, minutes from the Boeing factory, Mukilteo's waterfront, and the Lynnwood Link station. The lake itself is mostly ringed by private homes with limited public access. Mukilteo School District serves most addresses.
