Description of Our Community
The Verdant Service Area is experiencing rapid change and growth. Verdant’s Service Area is considered part of
the Seattle Metropolitan Area by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban
Development, and other national, state, regional, and local entities. It is grouped in regions such as North Puget Sound
(along with King County) and Seattle-Bellevue-Tacoma Metro Area.
Specific zip codes in Verdant’s Service Area have much higher percentages of residents over 65 years-old, specifically
the City of Edmonds and Woodway, whereas the Lynwood population has higher percentages of children and young
adults.
As a community, we are also growing in racial and ethnic diversity comparing the 2010 and 2020 census data.
