What it’s like
The place. Cinebar is a small community in Lewis County, Washington, where the typical resident is in middle age. Across Lewis County, most homes are lived in by their owners, and household incomes are a little lower than the county's. The winters are colder than most of the country's, the summers are mild, and the snow is light, but the climate is wet, with much more rain than most places get.
Work. Many residents work in schools, hospitals and social care, in shops, in manufacturing, or in the building trades. Across the county, unemployment is a little higher than a year earlier, and the number of jobs has grown slightly. Relatively few adults hold a four-year degree, and fewer people work from home than in many larger areas.
Things to do. The Deschutes River runs in or beside the town, and Newaukum Lake is also in or beside it, so both are close at hand for water-based outings. Ike Kinswa State Park, a protected area, is a short drive away.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms across Lewis County, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively moderate. It is meant for planning, not a substitute for a local risk assessment or a flood map: FEMA’s index.
From the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 census and its American Community Survey (2020–2024 five-year estimates), and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A survey, so each figure has a margin of error, and figures it is not sure of are left out. More on Lewis County and the Centralia, WA metro.
