About DuPont

DuPont is a Pierce County city south of Tacoma, with human history reaching back thousands of years. Its modern identity includes the DuPont Village Historic District, a reminder of the company town built around explosives manufacturing, and a newer planned-community pattern near Joint Base Lewis-McChord. DuPont has trails, neighborhoods, offices, and quick access to I-5, Olympia, and Tacoma. It feels unusually layered for a small city: Indigenous history, industrial company-town history, military proximity, and tidy modern growth all in one place.
