Bremerton

Bremerton is a city in Kitsap County, Washington, United States. The population was 39,520 at the 2010 census and an estimated 44,223 in 2018. It is home to Puget Sound Naval Shipyard and the Bremerton Annex of Naval Base Kitsap. Bremerton is connected to Downtown Seattle by two ferries: one from Port Orchard across Sinclair Inlet to downtown Seattle; and one from Bainbridge Island across Agate Passage (Eagle Harbor).

The city’s economy relies on shipbuilding activities as well as other sectors such as retail trade and services related with naval base personnel which includes jobs like real estate agents or lawyers who assist active military members when they buy a house or apply for benefits after leaving service Among them there are also many retired servicemen living here due their direct relationship with navy bases nearby . This sector represents about 10% of total employment according to data provided by US Census bureau but it has been impacted lately due COVID-19 pandemic where several companies have reduced staff numbers significantly . Furthermore tourism plays another important role mainly during summer season since people come around looking for recreational opportunities like fishing or sailing between May until September months representing 4% of local workforce .
