Living in Issaquah, WA
Officially incorporated in April of 1892, Issaquah was once a small mining town considered Gilman. In the late 1890s, the mining industry of Issaquah began to dwindle as the deposits wore down. Just after one industry began to lose its steam, another moved in. Lumber companies moved into the town and started transporting lumber from Issaquah and other small nearby towns by the railroad system. Lumber was transported to large, growing communities such as Seattle. After the Great Depression ran its course through the nation and Issaquah, the prominent industries quieted down and the town remained this way for the coming years.
Major corporations like The Boeing Company, Microsoft and other technology companies moved their headquarters into Issaquah. By 1996, Costco moved its headquarters to the town from Kirkland, a neighboring city. These industries allowed major development and diverse population growth in Issaquah.
Issaquah Work and Study
Costco’s move to Issaquah provides many jobs for residents of the area and is still considered the top employer. Other major employers are Microsoft, Boeing, Spacelabs Medical and the local school districts. Some other residents living in rentals in Issaquah commute to Seattle for employment.
There are several colleges within the general vicinity of Issaquah, including Northwest University, Trinity Lutheran College and Seattle University - Eastside Campus.

Issaquah Attractions and Special Events
In Issaquah, residents and visitors alike can enjoy anything from hang gliding to visiting one of the most scenic zoos around. Life in Issaquah is centered around nature and animal life, especially salmon. For nearly a century, residents have enjoyed the Issaquah Salmon Hatchery, and the town’s love of these fish is obvious in the annual Salmon Days Festival. More than 180,000 people gather at the Pacific Northwest’s most beloved festival filled with family-friendly fun.

Even one of the historical monuments in Issaquah is natural. The Gingko Tree was planted in 1900 and saved by local high school students from being uprooted. The species of trees dates back 150 million years and beyond ornamental gardens, ginkgos are otherwise extinct in North America.
