Best kept secret in the Northwest - 2/25/2024
Moved from Metro Philadelphia. We looked at 10 communities in the following states Del, Tenn, AZ , PA, Tex, NM, ID, WA. We narrowed it down to two great towns Washington State. I was absolutely certain that my wife’s heartfelt desire was to live in Arizona. She changed her mind and chose Lynden. We like both like being in a lovely smaller town, zero crime, very nicely kept, great people and beautiful surroundings. Plenty to see and do. The Jansen Art center is fantastic! I will only name a few of the reasons for moving cross country. East Coast “in your face” and irresponsible politics, high crime rate, break ins, no bail criminal culture, very high taxes, poor workmanship in the skilled tradesmen, unhappy and unpleasant community atmosphere. Taxpayers constantly complaining, yet voted the same folks back in. Lynden is only an hour away from Vancouver and we go to Canada almost as often as we go to Bellingham.. As I say to my wife daily, “it really feels like we’re on vacation

One of the better places if you're trapped in WA - 11/12/2019
I've lived all over the country and Washington has some of the unfriendliest and angriest people I've met. I was told to avoid Lynden and move to Bellingham because Bellingham is supposed to be more "progressive"; however, my first impression of Bellingham was watching two people scream at each other in a Fred Meyer over their place in line and having some road rager chase me through a round-about. That was just my first day here and it never got better so we chose to move to Lynden. Lynden has been the nicest thing about living here. I'm an atheist progressive and Lynden is a god-fearing town. It can be a little backwards. You'll see anti-abortion signs every few miles, but I've never been discriminated against here because of my beliefs. THE GOOD: Lynden has some of the nicest people you'll find along the I-5 corridor in Washington. They're not Minnesota nice or Southern nice, but they're as friendly as it gets in Washington. Lynden is a slice of Americana with quite a few Canadians

Every area in Lynden is the nice area! - 5/11/2007
I never fully appreciated Lynden until I moved away and came back again. It wasn't until then that I realized what a wonderful, safe and friendly community Lynden really is. Unlike many cities, you will not find one "bad" part of Lynden. The mass majority of the community has an incredible amount of "pride of owndership".
Lynden is a town where people still acknowledge you while you pass them on the street.
It's very refreshing to be able to take a walk down the street and feel
