The core urban area sits primarily in King, Pierce, and Snohomish counties, with suburban communities extending into Kitsap and Thurston counties.

Seattle is the largest city and serves as the cultural and economic hub of the region; Bellevue operates as a major corporate center across Lake Washington; and Tacoma is a significant deep-water port and logistics city. Together, these cities anchor a broader urbanized area that forms the Seattle–Tacoma-Bellevue Combined Statistical Area.

The economy is diverse, with technology and software (notably corporations headquartered in or near Seattle and Bellevue), aerospace and manufacturing, healthcare, education, maritime trade, and services. The region hosts major company campuses and research institutions that contribute to a strong innovation ecosystem.

Transportation infrastructure includes Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, a comprehensive highway network (I-5, I-90, and SR 520), and the Ports of Seattle and Tacoma. Regional transit features light rail connecting downtown Seattle to the Eastside and extending to neighboring communities, along with ferries serving Puget Sound.

Culturally, the area is known for a diverse population, vibrant arts and music scenes, sports teams, and a strong emphasis on outdoor recreation and environmental sustainability. The climate is marine west coast, with mild, wet winters and relatively dry summers.
