About Us
Burien is a young city built from homesteads around Lake Burien and a summer waterfront community on the Puget Sound. With six miles of shoreline and expansive mountain views, residents take pride in their neighborhoods, actively preserve the environment, and support protection of public spaces.
Burien is a diverse community. Individuals who identify as Latino/Hispanic make up Burien’s largest ethnic group at nearly a quarter of the total population. Another 10 percent identify as Asian, and according to the Highline School District, more than 50 different languages are spoken in the homes of Burien area students.
