Lacey

Lacey is known for its natural environment, nearly 20 percent of the city has been set aside for parks, natural areas, and open space. The city also holds the distinction of being an official EPA “Green Power Community” due to its commitment to green power use—one of the first in the nation. Sparkling lakes and saltwater, densely forested parklands, championship fairways, miles of hiking and biking trails, and an adjoining 3,700-acre wildlife refuge make enjoying nature as convenient as it is exciting. Towering above it all, the unbelievable magnificence of Mt. Rainier.
