In Clallam County, the bustling city of Sequim, the almost abandoned village of Dungeness, and the valley between them are all connected historically, culturally, and economically. The current population of Sequim is 8,048, or more than 20,000 if the surrounding valley is included.
Before Sequim was incorporated as a town, Dungeness existed on the Strait of Juan de Fuca, about five miles to the north. It was one of the first Puget Sound ports and enabled the growth of Sequim in the interior. But the S'Klallam Tribe inhabited this confined area of woodland and prairie between the Olympic Mountains and the Strait of Juan de Fuca long before either town arose.
