The Puget Sound region has a spectacular natural environment with mountains, forests, streams and a strong legacy of working lands.  It is a striking place to live with a strong job market, great neighborhoods and community assets, remarkable parks, libraries and museums.

The region is at a critical moment in its history. Population is expected to double in the next 100 years, adding enough people to populate six cities the size of Seattle. Globally, climate change threatens the natural environment, economy and standard of living. In response to these mounting pressures, Puget Sound residents must work together to protect their quality of life now and create a better future for those who come after them.

Careful planning of the region’s cities will provide more choices for future generations.  By building most new homes in walkable neighborhoods near transit, this new growth will not compromise natural areas, working farms and forests that make this region special.  Locating homes near transportation, jobs and shopping will also make it easier to get around, helping to make the cities more affordable, attractive and safer places to live, work and raise families.
