About Napavine

Napavine is a city in Lewis County, Washington, United States. The population was 1,888 at the 2020 census.

The early community of Napavine began during the 1850s, led by several pioneering families. The town was platted in 1883 and incorporated by 1913. Railroad and timber were the early economic drivers of the community during the late 19th and early 20th century. Several sawmills were constructed, and hotels and stores became numerous. The town's depot was a focal point until it was permanently shuttered in 1968.

Into the 21st century, Napavine has seen steady population growth, becoming known as a bedroom community with a small school district. The town has focused on creating neighborhood parks honoring long-time residents of the city and has been known since the 1970s for its annual Napavine Funtime Festival.
