Footnotes ...

<1>Our distances are not driving distances, but are calculated as a 'point-to-point' distance. A straight line distance ignores obstructions like rivers, canyons, lakes, et cetera - it's truly a line drawn from Point A (ie- Tacoma) to Point B.Our distance measurements begin at a specific point in Tacoma. The point we use is located at these GPS coordinates - Latitude: 47.2534, Longitude: -122.4386
