Washington State Data Book

The purpose of the Washington State Data Book is to present, in one reference document, a diversity of information on Washington, its people, economy, and government.  The information is obtained from state and federal agencies as well as private business.

The Data Book contains eleven major sections: Population, Economy, State Government Finance, Human Services, Criminal Justice, Education, Natural Resources, Environment, Energy, Transportation, and Local Government. These sections represent the type of information most frequently requested by a broad range of users.

Every effort is made to ensure the accuracy of the data presented in the Data Book. Because the Data Book is published every two years, much of the material is subject to frequent updates and changes and these data should not be cited as the most recent official agency information.

Note: Individual tables (PDF and Excel) can be accessed using the left menu structure.
