🦑 Humboldt County
~136,000 peopleHumboldt County is where the redwoods meet the sea. Eureka and Arcata anchor a region built on timber, fishing, and agriculture. The Yurok, Hoopa Valley, and Karuk tribes have called this land home since time immemorial. But mill closures devastated communities, and salmon runs are struggling. Humboldt needs an economy that works for loggers, fishers, tribes, AND the environment.
