Recently named one of the Top Ten places to live by Seattle Metropolitan magazine, Kent is fast becoming one of the Seattle area’s most desired communities.
The City of Kent is the fourth largest city in King County, with a culturally rich population of 88,380. It covers a geographic area of 29 square miles. Kent's population is projected to grow to 100,000 within the next few years!
Conveniently located directly between the cities of Seattle and Tacoma, Kent has several distinct neighborhoods and commercial districts within its boundaries.
Offering a pleasant climate, Kent is characteristically warm rather than hot. Majestic Mt. Rainier, rising 14,410 feet above the valley floor, can be viewed and enjoyed for its scenic beauty.
