Washington is a state in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States. As of the 2020 U.S. census, it is the 13th-most populous state, with inhabitants, and ranked 18th by land area, spanning of land. Washington is divided into 39 counties and contains 281 municipalities that are classified into cities and towns. Approximately of the state's population lives in incorporated municipalities.
The most populous municipality in Washington is Seattle with 737,015 residents, and the least populous municipality is Krupp with 49 residents. The state has ten cities with populations greater than 100,000 residents and sixteen with populations between 50,000 and 100,000 residents; the majority of cities have fewer than 5,000 residents. Seattle is also the largest municipality by land area, at , while Beaux Arts Village is the smallest at ; both are located in King County. The oldest municipality is Steilacoom, which was incorporated in 1854; the most recent municipality to incorporate was Spokane Valley in 2003. Five municipalities have also been disincorporated with their governments dissolved; the most recent was Westlake, which disincorporated and became part of Moses Lake in 1972.
The state has five categories for its 281 municipalities that vary based on population at the time of incorporation or reorganization. , 197 are code cities, 10 are first-class cities, 5 are second-class cities, and 69 are towns; one city remains unclassified. These powers include the ability to collect general taxes to fund municipal services and specialized taxes for specific uses; providing emergency services, urban planning, and water treatment among other services; and enforce laws passed by the city council. After Washington was admitted as a U.S. state in 1889, the state legislature created classifications for local municipalities, each with a population threshold. First-class and code cities with populations greater than 10,000 are authorized under the state constitution to adopt a charter that grants home rule powers at the local level.
, Washington has ten first-class cities that are permitted to adopt and operate under a home rule charter; they are required to have a population of at least 10,000 residents at the time of their incorporation or reorganization. The state has five second-class cities that have limited authority and can only use powers granted by the state legislature; they are required to have at least 1,500 residents at the time of their incorporation or reorganization.
The state legislature created another classification—the code city—in 1967 to grant greater control to cities, who sought expanded home rule authority to address complex issues as they urbanized. , the state has 197 municipalities that are code cities—the most of any classification. , one city remains unclassified—Waitsburg, in Walla Walla County—and continues to use the 1881 territorial charter under which it was organized.
