Parking Inventory
Contact
The PSRC conducts a periodic inventory of off-street parking facilities in the central Puget Sound region. The survey areas include the central business districts (CBDs) of Seattle, Bellevue, Tacoma, Everett, and Bremerton; Seattle’s First Hill, Lower Queen Anne, and University District neighborhoods; and selected ferry terminals at Bainbridge Island, Kingston, and Southworth.
Information is collected on the number of stalls, occupancy, and parking costs for each facility. The types of surveyed facilities include off-street public and private parking, free and pay, carpool and vanpool, motor pool and customer parking. The parking inventory dataset contains data on occupancy, costs, and facility types by census tract, block group, and block. The parking inventory reports present charts, tables, and analysis of the survey data.
