What it’s like
The place. Keyport is a very small community on the Kitsap Peninsula, with far fewer residents than most towns people think of when they picture Puget Sound. Winters are cold but mild by northern standards, with a little snow in most years and a good deal of rain and melted snow through the year. Summers are warm without turning hot, and August is the warmest month.
Work. Residents work mainly in schools, hospitals and social care, in professional and business services, in shops and in manufacturing. Across Kitsap County, some of the largest workplaces are Harrison Medical Center, Central Kitsap School District and Olympic College. Household incomes in the county are comfortable, and the typical home in Keyport is valued well above what many homeowners elsewhere would expect.
Things to do. The Naval Undersea Museum is in or beside town, and it is the easiest outing to make. Farther afield, a longer drive reaches Seattle, where the Space Needle is a well-known tourist attraction and the Seattle Art Museum and the Museum of Pop Culture offer indoor afternoons.

Not listed: many offices and banks, which need not report to OSHA; military bases, whose staff OPM withholds; and, in about half the states, city and county governments.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Keyport’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively high. 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 Kitsap County and the Bremerton-Silverdale-Port Orchard, WA metro.
