Longview Washington was built in the early 1920s. The overall size of the city covers approximately 13.7 square miles and is a home of around 38,000 residents. With the city’s convenient location, (50 miles north of Portland, OR, and 126 miles south of Seattle), easy access to major transportation corridors including interstate I-5, the Columbia River, and a major rail line it has attracted many business and National Retail Stores in the last few years, becoming the quickest growing city in Cowlitz County.

Longview Washington is a fishermen’s paradise community nestled between the banks of the largest two rivers in the Northwest; the Columbia and Cowlitz Rivers and is a short 75 minutes east of the Pacific Ocean.
