TagHighline Community(23)

A 1973 public opinion survey commissioned by the Port of Seattle and King County found that nearly one in five Highline-area residents considered airplane noise from Sea-Tac Airport their community's single most serious problem, with concern rising sharply among those living in the highest-noise zones. Highline residents were more likely to want to move than those in quieter comparison areas, though the survey also found that the Port of Seattle was viewed favorably by a strong majority across all groups surveyed.

This document is a community map and fact sheet published by The Highline Times, a weekly newspaper serving the Greater Highline area of South King County, Washington, which includes communities such as Tukwila, Normandy Park, Burien, Renton, and surrounding neighborhoods. It provides demographic and economic statistics for the region, including a population of 120,220, an average family income of $8,737, and 33,300 occupied housing units. The map also lists local emergency phone numbers for agencies such as the King County Sheriff, local hospitals, and fire districts, and notes that the newspaper was distributed to 256,000 homes in South King County and Pierce County.
