• Seattle's population boom has hit the brakes, new data shows (seattletimes.com) — Stanwood is one of the fastest-growing communities in King and Snohomish counties, topping 4% population growth while Seattle’s once-surging numbers have slowed sharply. New state estimates show the region’s growth shifting toward smaller, more rural cities like Stanwood and Carnation, even as overall statewide growth cools to its slowest pace in decades.
