Pronunciation[edit]

I've added right after the name at the heading what I think are the correct IPA symbols for the town's pronunciation. 4.243.206.75 20:01, 12 March 2007 (UTC) Yes, the pronunciation is "Skwim" .. and the sister city is Yamasaki. - Tera Powers[reply]

Neutrality[edit]

I agree that the section about "losing its rural status" is both dubious in its no doubt intended neutral status...it honestly sounds like every single senior citizen I grew up with in the fair city of Sequim. Its actually still quite rural indeed.Thesetrixaintforkids (talk) 20:47, 3 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with this statement. I visited Sequim 10 years ago and my first boyfriend and close friend still lives there. He certainly wouldn't describe it as urban! Rachaella (talk) 22:55, 1 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
