Kennewick, WA Real Estate

Kennewick is a city in Benton County in southeastern Washington. It is the most populous of the three cities collectively referred to as the Tri-Cities (the others being Pasco and Richland ). Kennewick is located along the southwest bank of the Columbia River, opposite Pasco, Washington, and just south of the confluence of the Columbia and Yakima rivers and northeast of the Walla Walla River. As of the 2004 census estimates, the city had a total population of 60,118, making it the largest city in Benton County. Kennewick's current mayor is James Beaver.

Kennewick was officially incorporated on February 5, 1904. Previously, the town had been known by many names, the strangest was "Tehe" which was allegedly attributed to the reaction from a native girl's laughter when asked the name of the region.

The name "Kennewick" is believed to be a native word meaning "grassy place." It has also been called "winter paradise," mostly because of the mild winters in the area.

Kennewick Man is the name for the remains of a prehistoric man found on a bank of the Columbia River nearby, sometimes thought to have Caucasian features, despite being indigenous and living 9000 years ago. Ownership of the bones has been a matter of great controversy.
