Being home to the Earth’s second largest floating bridge in the world, Mercer Island is occupied by over 22,700 people. Located in the Seattle Metropolitan area, the island was first settled back in the late 1800s and is now known as the most populated island on a lake within the United States. Interstate 90 runs through the northern part of the island and is accompanied by three bridges to make up the route. The island is part of King County and acquires its own unique zip code – 98040.
The island has its own City Hall as well as a total of nine schools. Six of the schools belong to the Mercer Island School District (three primary schools, one middle school, one high school and one alternative secondary) and the other three vary in the ages that they serve. Throughout the island there are 475 acres of parks and open spaces. Luther Burbank Park is one of the most popular and it contains many different activities for people to enjoy: public boat dock and fishing pier, a swimming beach, an amphitheater, tennis courts, barbecues and picnic tables, and an off-leash dog area.
