Our Community

Our community features the best of everything. We have mountains, lakes and Bellingham Bay at our doorstep. With Vancourver, B.C. to the north and Seattle to the south, you can enjoy the fun city life without leaving the beauty of the mountains and water.
 
Bellingham's waterfront hosts major shipping operations and is the southern terminal for the Alaska State ferry system.  Recreational boaters enjoy easy access to the San Juan Islands and the Canadian Gulf Islands, restaurants, parks and trails that surround Bellingham Bay. 
 
We have a first rate University, a fine-arts museum, fantastic theatre and a variety of outdoor activity possible.  The economy is a diverse mix of light industry, retail, agriculture and education. 
 
Most residents think it is a pleasure to live and work in Whatcom County with it's outdoor beauty and friendly people.
