Puyallup, WA

Puyallup lies in the fertile river valley between Tacoma and Mount Rainier, about 35 miles south of Seattle. Most visitors take I-5 to State Route 512, then connect to SR-167 or local exits. The city sits at the intersection of several major Pierce County routes, with SR-161 running through downtown and SR-512 providing the main east-west corridor. Every September, the Puyallup Fair transforms the town into one of the Pacific Northwest's largest agricultural celebrations, drawing over a million visitors to its historic fairgrounds.
