  • Tribal Element
    Tribal Element Three federally-recognized Indian Tribes, the Sauk-Suiattle Tribe, the Stillaguamish Tribe, and the Tulalip Tribes, occupy areas of present-day Snohomish County. These Tribes and their ancestors are a land and water based people, part of a larger group of aboriginal Tribes and First Nations known as the Coast Salish peoples, who live around the Salish Sea in what is now Washington State and the Canadian Province of British Columbia. The Coast Salish Tribes and First Nations have lived here since time immemorial, enjoying a landscape rich in natural resources. Coast Salish lifeways are tied to the natural environment of the Pacific Northwest, especially the Salish Sea. Today the Sauk-Suiattle, Stillaguamish, and the Tulalip Tribes are sovereign nations recognized by the United States government. Each Tribe has its own government with its own governing charter or constitution and set of general laws. These Tribes reserved lands in what is now Snohomish County as Indian reservation homelands. The Tribes have important historic and cultural sites both on and off their reservations. Each Tribe continues to exercise off-reservation rights reserved under treaty with the United States, including the right to fish in usual and accustomed fishing grounds and the right to hunt and gather on open and unclaimed lands. Snohomish County acknowledges the historic and present-day connection between tribal people and the land base, and recognizes each Tribe’s sovereignty. Snohomish County is committed to partnering with the Tribes to protect and preserve Tribal cultural and treaty resources, the natural environment, and sacred cultural areas. The relationship between these Tribes and Snohomish County is especially important when activities of county government, particularly land use regulation, have implications for one or more Tribes.

  • Current Estimates of New York City's Population for July 2019
    CURRENT ESTIMATES OF NEW YORK CITY'S POPULATION FOR JULY 2019 Summary The U.S. Census Bureau has estimated New York City’s population at 8,336,817, as of July 1, 2019. This represented an increase of 161,684 residents (or 2.0 percent) over the April 1, 2010 decennial census count of 8,175,133. Post-2010 growth translates into an average annual gain of about 17,500 persons, or 0.2 percent compounded annually. Population growth has been fueled by the continued surplus of births over deaths, which has been partially offset by net outflows from the city. While the city grew by roughly 161,700 persons since 2010, New York State grew only by 75,500 people due to a decline of 86,200 persons in counties outside the city. Of the State’s 62 counties, 48 lost population since 2010. In contrast, each of the city’s five boroughs registered gains in population. Manhattan saw the largest increase, up 2.7 percent, followed by the Bronx (2.4 percent), Brooklyn (2.2 percent), and Staten Island (1.6 percent); Queens showed the smallest gain (1.0 percent) over the 111- month period. While the city’s population has shown an overall increase since 2010, these estimates also reveal a pattern of population losses in each of the last three years. It is important to remember that New York does not always have an upward growth trajectory. In some years, the city has experienced high population growth – In the first years of this decade, growth averaged around 1 percent, which the city had not seen for nearly a century, and was unsustainable in the long term.
