Community
Smokey Point is a community in northern Snohomish County, Washington. The area, developed as a suburban bedroom community in the late 20th century, was annexed into the nearby cities of Arlington and Marysville in the 1990s and 2000s. With a population of only 1,556, Smokey Point is a growing and vibrant community. The 675-acre Smokey Point Master Plan area constitutes the largest developable concentration of commercial and light industrial-zoned property along I-5 from the U.S.-Canadian border to south of Seattle-Tacoma. It's close proximity to Arlington Municipal Airport and the City's Airport Business Park expansion plan makes this area an economic development oasis. Nearby Strawberry Fields Athletic Complex, Flying Disc Golf Course, Strawberry Fields for Rover Off-Leash Park, Kayak Point County Park, and Tulalip Resort Casino offer fun and entertainment for the entire family.
We are dedicated to building lifetime relationships with peers and patients in Washington State's richly diverse communities. Many know the Pacific Northwest as an attractive tourist destination with beautiful scenery, friendly people, and a host of cultural and recreational opportunities. These elements, and others, make Washington an excellent place to live.
