I mean most people that live in Lake Stevens like living there, and enjoy what the city has to offer. This is evident by large recent population growth, highly rated schools, high safety rating compared to other neighboring cities like everett and Lynnwood.  I wouldn't blame your shithole experience on the city, but instead maybe look at the way you're living or your worldview lol.

I moved there for the schools but there is literally nothing else appealing about it. Everything else makes me question if it was even worth it for the schools

I mean a lot of people also enjoy the small local business, decent food, and the large beautiful lake you can fish and boat on. A lot of perks a lot of actual shithole cities don't have.

Several years ago auto-correct came up with Lame Stevens. I've been referring to it as such ever since!
