The city is located on an isthmus between Lake Washington and Puget Sound about 100 miles south of the Canadian border. Seattle is the fourth largest port in North America and is a major gateway for Asian trade. Seattle was a leader in the logging industry until the late 19th century. In the 1980s Seattle began to establish itself as a leader in the word of technology with companies like Microsoft and others calling Seattle home. Amazon, a leader in the world of retail Internet sales, is also based in Seattle. These new companies led to an economic revival in the area of Seattle increasing the city’s population by almost 50,000 residents between the 1990 and 2000.
