Kennewick Washington History
Posted Dec 27, 2006 @ 7:44 am, Viewed by 735 Visitors, Read 736 Times.Kennewick was officially incorporated on February 5, 1904. Previously, the town had been known by many names, the strangest was "Tehe" which was allegedly attributed to the reaction from a native girl's laughter when asked the name of the region.
The name "Kennewick" is believed to be a native word meaning "grassy place." It has also been called "winter paradise," mostly because of the mild winters in the area.
Kennewick Man is the name for the remains of a prehistoric man found on a bank of the Columbia River nearby, sometimes thought to have Caucasian features, despite being indigenous and living 9000 years ago. Ownership of the bones has been a matter of great controversy.

Spoken Gently
Region wide, it is about 25%, however, our properties (22 rental units) have a vacancy rate of about 4% The obvious difference is personal rental management, versus hired, or commercial, property management. Right now, we have 100% occupancy, but that's with helping a single mom pay her rent! I'm not sure how that factors into things.
