| The region to be served by the new library was once a traditional Northwest logging community, but with the decline of the logging industry, it is now a verydiverse community. Immigrants from Russin and the Ukranie now make up 30% of our community, as well as many new pople moving here from urgan areas looking for an inexpensive place to live. This Kendall-North Fork area is a large geographic area with a scattered population and is the fourth largest community in Whatcom County. The area is unincorporated, has very few organized services, and includes a high proportion of low- to moderate-income households: 71% of children enrolled at Kendall Elementary School are eligible for free or reduced price lunches. The Kendall-North Fork area has the larges number of economically disadvanted families in the county and 24% of the populaion resides in households below the poverty line. | |
