Join the Opening List →Lakewood looks different from Tacoma in the ways that matter for a home. Its water comes from wells, more than half of its households rent, and the nation's military moves set much of its rhythm.
Lakewood officially became a city on February 28, 1996, after voters approved incorporation in March 1995, but its community is much older. Camp Lewis was built beside it in 1917, and McChord Field was developed in 1938. The City of Lakewood calls the base the fourth largest military base in the world.
The city has 14 parks covering more than 540 acres and seven lakes, including American Lake. Its 360 acre Fort Steilacoom Park draws over 1 million visitors a year. Muddy paws and walking shoes are part of the routine for plenty of households here.
About 59 percent of Lakewood's housing units were built before 1980, with a median year built of 1975, and about 53 percent of occupied homes are rented. A house from that era often needs a One-Time Deep Clean as a reset, with hand washed baseboards, wet-wiped blinds and vents wiped in place. In a home built before 1978, mention any chipped paint first.
With so many renters and so many military moves, the end of a lease is a frequent event. Washington law gives a landlord 30 days after a tenant moves out to return the deposit or give a full and specific statement of why any is kept. A One-Time Moving Clean, including the inside of the oven, refrigerator and cabinets, suits that moment. Check any housing office or lease requirements before you schedule.
Lakewood Water District's only source is groundwater from 31 active wells in four aquifers, and some sources are filtered to remove iron and manganese where elevated levels are found. That means water here differs from Tacoma's Green River supply. If you see staining on fixtures, mention it to your cleaner and check with the district, since the cause can affect how it should be treated.
Like the rest of the South Sound, Lakewood has wet winters. November through January bring about 6 inches or more of rain a month at the Tacoma station, so wet shoes and paws are a routine issue after any trip to the lake or park. Ecology's soil guidance, with shoes off and a wipe-off mat at the door, also fits that routine. The seasonal calendar puts all of this in order.
