Reading the Redmond data for roofing
Redmond is one of the fastest-growing Seattle-metro suburbs tracked here: 82,506 people (2025 estimate), up 12.6% since 2020[1]. The city spans 16.6 square miles at 4,972 residents per square mile (the 3rd densest) and sits entirely in King County, served by ZIP code 98052[2].
Roofs of every age sit side by side here: 27% of homes were built in 2010 or later and 26% before 1980[4], so two houses on one street can need very different roof work.
98052 is the city's single ZIP code[5].

No hail or damaging thunderstorm-wind reports fall within 10 miles of central Redmond for 2016–2025[3] — true of all 15 Seattle-area suburbs we cover. Reports need an observer, so a quiet record isn't a guarantee.
