Medina is a city located in the Eastside, an affluent region of King County, Washington. Surrounded on the north, west, and south by Lake Washington, opposite Seattle, Medina is bordered by Clyde Hill and Hunts Point, as well as the satellite city of Bellevue. The population was 3,011 at the 2000 census. The city is mostly residential and home to many of the wealthiest people in the greater Seattle area, including Microsoft chairman Bill Gates. Based on per capita income, one of the more reliable measures of affluence, Medina ranks 2nd of 522 areas in the state of Washington to be ranked. Named in 1892 for the holy city of Medina in Saudi Arabia, Medina was platted in 1914 and officially incorporated on August 19, 1955. In 1891, Mr. T.L. Dabney built the first landing in Medina on what later became known as Dabney Point. The landing was directly across from the Leschi Park landing and it became the main crossing point for settlers to enter the Points Country . As the community around the landing began to grow, local residents wanted to give it a distinct name. A community meeting was held and three women were appointed to select a name for the community. Mrs. Flora Beloti ™s choice was the name selected. She had decided on the name Medeena , after a popular Arabian city. Dabney was offended, he wanted it named Floridine . Mr. Dabney built a large sign that said Floridine and placed it in the water beside his landing. The next evening when he came home from working in Seattle, he found his sign had been replaced by a Medeena sign. He promptly took it down and put his sign back up. This feud continued for several days, with Dabney replacing the Medeena sign each evening when he would return from work. The ladies prevailed. Dabney eventually tired and left the Medeena sign up.
