Throughout its history, Brier has been characterized by large, wooded, single-family home sites and a clear determination to shape its own future. Brier, 15 miles north of Seattle in Snohomish County, offers a quiet, small-town quality of life. Its goal is clear: to retain its semi-rural, wooded character and to remain relatively small, simple and intimate. Here parks and picnic areas are priorities, and horses often are given the right-of-way.
A comprehensive city plan preserves Brier as a retreat for single-family homes on a minimum 12,500-foot lot. Although Brier does not have a commercial core, many residents run home-based businesses. Community Transit bus service and Interstate 5 place urban conveniences close at hand. Families also enjoy the new library located on Brier Road.
Community residents and visitors alike enjoy Brierfest, the area’s largest annual event, which begins with a parade at Brier Park on the first Saturday in August, and the town’s annual December tree-lighting celebration.
