Custer, Washington, is a small community situated between Bellingham and the Canadian border, with a population of just over 500 residents. The area has historical roots dating back to the 1890s, when railroads spurred its development. Today, Custer features a post office, a church, and Tony’s Tavern, a family-owned bar and restaurant that serves as a local gathering spot. Housing options include early 1900s cottages, newer ranch-style homes, and manufactured homes, with some properties requiring flood insurance due to potential flooding along California Creek. The crime rate in Custer is significantly lower than the national average. The community is car-dependent, with Interstate 5 providing convenient access to nearby amenities and services in Bellingham, located about 15 miles southeast. Local schools offer unique programs, including Lummi language classes and dual-enrollment opportunities through the University of Washington. Recreational activities in Custer include the Grandview Golf Course, hiking at Jensen Family Forest Park, and beach access at Birch Bay State Park, less than 10 miles west. Shopping and dining options are available at Birch Bay Square, approximately 2 miles north, and larger stores in Bellingham. Despite its small size, Custer has faced challenges, including recent train derailments, but efforts have ensured no lasting environmental impact.
