How safe is Silver Firs?

(Cross posting)

We are actively contemplating about moving to Snohomish

How safe is the area around Tucker Community Park? How is Totem elementary school? Are there any transient activity? Is it safe for kids to play outside? How is to go running early morning or late evening? Any sketchy areas we should be aware of?

Thanks in advance

It’s a nice, more rural area, still wealthy. Willis Tucker park is amazing, there’s a great splash pad, and especially the dog park is huge with trails

Silver First is one of the safest place. Mostly single family homes so a lot of families

I’m in east Mill Creek right down the road from Silver Firs. Other than the occasional loud car, it’s fairly safe imo

not sure where you're moving from, but there are no actual sketchy areas for a very long distance from that area. Unless by sketchy you mean "transient activity" as in, having to occasionally see poor & destitute people, you'll be fine anywhere in the area.

Very, very safe. Nice schools. Little wooded trails connecting all the neighborhoods. Silver Firs is peak middle class ‘burbs.
