Aberdeen anchors Grays Harbor County, a historically Democratic timber and fishing hub that has trended Republican in recent cycles as extraction-industry employment declined and demographic composition shifted away from organized-labor households.
Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 49.9 points in 1936 and a Republican high of 51.7 points in 1904. Between 2020 and 2024 the metro moved 0.6 points toward the Democratic candidate; the 2024 margin was 6.0 points.
A population of 77,053, a 76% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $64,414 describe the metro. The metro's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Galesburg, IL and Longview-Kelso, WA.

Political twins — metros
The metros whose fingerprint — 2000–2024 trajectory, demographics, ancestry, religion — sits closest to this one, and why.
Twin score (0–100) = weighted cosine between tier-standardized fingerprints: presidential margins 2000–2024 with 12-yr trend and elasticity, ACS income, age, education, population and race, top reported ancestries, and religious adherence — chips name the closest-shared dimensions and the widest gap.
