1This table includes population data for all incorporated cities and towns in existence on April 1, 2000.
2Date of incorporation indicates date of first incorporation. Several cities and towns have been reincorporated after disincorporation. A few special instances of this kind are covered by footnote. Great care has been taken to authenticate the date of original incorporation with the most reliable sources. It will be noted that there are certain discrepancies between the present compilation and those prepared by the Office of the Secretary of State and by the Association of Washington Cities.
3The census data have varied to a certain extent from one census to another. The date for the 1890 and 1900 censuses was June 1; for 1910, April 15; for 1920, January 1; and for 1930 through 2000, April 1.
4Auburn originally incorporated as Slaughter; name changed in 1893.
5Bainbridge Island originally incorporated as Winsl
