About Woodway
Woodway is a town of 1,318 (2020 Census) — one of the smallest and most municipalities in Snohomish County — a wooded residential enclave between Edmonds and Shoreline near Puget Sound (per Wikipedia, read September 24, 2026). There is essentially no commercial development: large wooded lots, winding roads without sidewalks, and strict land-use controls preserve the forest feel. Residents buy seclusion minutes from Edmonds' waterfront and Seattle's job centers. The Edmonds School District serves the town.
