The city of Everett sits at the very edge of the Seattle metropolitan, almost arguably not a part of it. With this, you will see signs that are largely English, and sprinkled around are occasional non-English signs.

An auto shop located in Everett. It sits just on the edge of an industrial block that's not too far from the transit center.

This is an advisory talking about a nearby baseball stadium for a minor league team that will soon be having the stadium moved to a different location within Everett. Notably, this sign expects that the only readers will know English.

One of the first pieces of signage that has a language other than English that I could find. a warning advisory to be aware of telephone poles. Operating on the expectation that there will be both English and Spanish speaking people using this area.

More English signs in the area immediately from the transit center. This one is advertising traffic control, which is fitting for how car-centered the downtown part of Everett seems to be

Here's a sign featuring both Arabic through the name "Aladdin" as well as English through the subsequent "bail bonds" part. Perhaps the business is owned by or was previously owned by someone with an Arabic name, which could at least imply a population other than white European english-speakers

an information placard detailing the establishment of a library that's in Everett. The establishment of the building is in part inspired by Andrew Carnegie, a 19th century steel mill executive. Having information that's only English prevents others from enjoying the foundation of this building.

The campus directory of Snohomish county headquarters. Being a governing body, part of me would expect there to be more than just English to supplement more people using the campus courthouse, but only English stands here.

Info sign regarding the expansion of the children's museum in downtown Everett. Lots of the expansion signs in the downtown area seem to be exclusively in English, both saying that the majority of speakers in the area are English, and that there's an expectation that future residents will also only speak English.

Here's another Everett sign expecting most everyone reading it to understand English. I can't help but imagine if someone is non-English speaking how they would know what to and not to stay away from.

Without any context, something like this would almost be a way to bring in people who want to prolong the efforts that Christopher Columbus set, which communicates how many people in Everett would be interested in coming to something like that.

a heavily stylized Japanese mural text. Not sure what it says but it's definitely not English. Speaks volumes that the first piece of Asian text is used for a mural
