Tacoma ( IPA : [t ™ ko m ™] ) is a mid-sized urban port city in Washington, USA. The city is situated on a peninsula on the southern end of Washington's Puget Sound, in an area 51 km (32 miles) southwest of Seattle, 50 km (31 miles) northeast of the State capital, Olympia, and 93 km (58 miles) northwest of Mount Rainier National Park. According to 2006 Washington State OFM estimates, Tacoma has an estimated population of 199,600. [1] Tacoma stands as the second-largest city in the Puget Sound area, the third-largest in the state, and the seat of government of Pierce County. Tacoma adopted its name after the nearby Mount Rainier, which was originally called Mount Tacoma or Mount Tahoma. It is known as the "City of Destiny" because the area was chosen to be the site of the western terminus of the Northern Pacific Railroad in the late 1800s. The decision of the railroad was influenced in part because of Tacoma's neighboring Commencement Bay. By connecting the bay with the railroad Tacoma ™s motto became When rails meet sails. Today Commencement Bay serves the Port of Tacoma, a major player in international trade on the Pacific Coast. Featured Homes in Tacoma, WA
