Local Immigrant Population*

8000

*Immigrant Population is an estimated sum of the number of naturalized Americans from this country and citizens from this country living in the Seattle Metro Area under any sort of immigration visa.  It does not count the American offspring or descendants of immigrants from this country, which can go back many generations and account for large numbers of people.  1,000 is the default number when we don’t have a better count.

Languages:

English is the common and official language in Kenya.

Notes:

It may not seem apparent on the surface, but Seattle is graced with a tight knit Kenyan population.  If you are Kenyan in Seattle, then you should not feel too lonely, although the western habit of ignoring strangers in public places may be difficult to grasp at first.  Enough Kenyans have settled in the region to sustain cultural festivals, community associations, and places of worship.  A google search will reveal some restaurants with Kenyan food, which is probably a good indicator of neighborhoods and towns with colorful clusters of Kenyan community.

Why does Seattle need this directory?

1

Covid has ruined the travel plans of so many people.  Maybe you are one of them.  Family trips, honeymoons, first time overseas trips postponed and cancelled.  Please explore this directory to create your own Round-the-World experience without traveling far from Seattle.  

2

Believe it or not, in 2022, New York City passed a law granting non-US citizens the right to vote in certain local and municipal elections.  Will Seattle follow NYC?  Time will tell.  If that comes to be, then this directory should be indispensable.  Let us know what you think.
