Lakewood: Adjacent to Joint Base Lewis-McChord
Lakewood sits immediately west of Joint Base Lewis-McChord in Pierce County, about six miles southwest of Tacoma. The population is approximately 63,000. The city incorporated relatively recently, in 1996, after decades of unincorporated growth in the area that is now known as the Lakewood area. American Lake, Gravelly Lake, and Steilacoom Lake provide the lakes that gave the area its name.
The military presence shapes daily life. Joint Base Lewis-McChord combines the former Fort Lewis Army post and McChord Air Force Base into a single installation hosting I Corps, the 7th Infantry Division, and the 62nd Airlift Wing along with numerous other tenants. Many military families live in Lakewood, and a substantial share of local businesses cater to that population.
Clover Park Technical College, one of the largest technical colleges in Washington, sits within Lakewood and offers programs in aerospace, automotive, and allied health. Pierce College's Fort Steilacoom campus serves the area as well. Lakewold Gardens, a ten-acre estate garden on Gravelly Lake, preserves a mid-twentieth-century Olmsted Brothers landscape design.
