Olympia is located on the southern tip of scenic Puget Sound, which offers an abundance of saltwater activities from beachcombing to salmon fishing and sailing. The magnificent Olympic and Cascade Mountain ranges also provide amazing scenery and recreation opportunities. Olympia and its primary neighboring cities of Tumwater and Lacey have a population of 250,000, small enough to see your neighbors around town, big enough to offer an abundance of culture, entertainment and an outstanding school system from elementary through university, including The Evergreen State College and Saint Martin's University. And, for those really big city amenities, both Seattle and Portland, Oregon, are about 90 minutes away by car.
