Situated in the foothills of the Cascade Mountains, you will find the beautiful town of Princeton. The mountains and valleys make it a natural setting for fabulous, year-round outdoor activities and an outstanding vacation destination. Princeton's western heritage is as rich and deep as the gold and copper mines that honeycomb their way beneath the timbered landscape. It was natural, therefore, that the city decided in 1999 to adopt a western theme for Princeton.

Come live, work and play where others only vacation. Make a difference. Love your work.
