I-5 was chosen as the eastern border for the region and Longview-Kelso metropolitan area as the Southernmost point. Cities along the I-5 that are in Washington but south of there are not included in this list.

Pierce County was wholly excluded from consideration. Olympia is the northernmost city along I-5 in this list. Lacey is not included because I-5 turns east in Olympia, so Lacey is east of Olympia.
