Working in Eastern Pierce County

Our proximity to the Port of Tacoma brings a strong percentage of living-wage jobs to our area. Our easy freeway access and more affordable land rates have also combined to bring major manufacturing companies, distribution centers and logistics centers to our area, which in turn have attracted a complementary host of companies designed to provide goods and services to those companies and their employees.

Higher education centers willing to provide trained employees, land and home prices that are more affordable than in neighboring King County and an emerging high tech sector all make East Pierce County an attractive place to work.
