Districts in King County, Washington

01

Numbers used more than once

The single most common way to arrive at the wrong district. A number is unique within a type, not within a county — Fire District 1 and School District 1 are unrelated governments.

02

Every district in King County

Each is a separate government with its own elected board, budget and ballot.

What this page will not compute

Each of these is a number a reader might reasonably expect. None of them follow from the records we hold, so we do not publish them.

What it levies, or spends

Special districts set their own levies and budgets, and those filings are held by each county assessor rather than in any state-wide dataset. Nothing here is a financial figure.

Who currently sits on the board

We show election records where a district name matched one, which is 54% of them. A matched election tells you who won that race, not who holds the seat today — boards fill vacancies by appointment between elections, and those appointments are not published centrally.

Where its boundary runs

The register gives a precinct count, not a shape. Two districts of the same type in one county can be adjacent or nowhere near each other, and this page cannot tell you which.

Where this page comes from

Every figure above is read from a primary source and rebuilt on a schedule. Nothing here is modelled or inferred; where a source is silent the page says so rather than filling the gap.
