Situated on the Kitsap Peninsula bordering Liberty Bay, Poulsbo is known as the Viking City for its extensive Norwegian heritage. Poulsbo’s historic downtown area, affectionately referred to as Little Norway, is brimming with cafes, galleries, museums, restaurants, and shops along Front Street in storefronts adorned with decorative Norwegian folk art. Names of shops and streets are inspired by Scandinavian culture, including the Nordic Maid and King Olaf Street.
Poulsbo’s warm community is brought together by the waterfront local, support for small businesses, and community events such as the annual Viking Fest, Poulsbo Arts Festival, and Summer Nights at the Bay Concert Series. Several parks, Liberty Bay, and the nearby Olympic Mountains provide opportunities for all kinds of outdoor recreation like mountain biking, kayaking, and fly fishing. Poulsbo has all the comforts of a small town with ferry access to Seattle, which is right across the Puget Sound.

School data provided by
GreatSchools
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
