Royal City, Washington — Crown Is Imaginary; the Canals Are Not

Royal City is another community created by the Columbia Basin Project.

Before large-scale irrigation, this part of Grant County could support only limited agriculture.

Federal water projects changed the economics after World War II, opening land to irrigated farms and creating demand for a new service town.

The surrounding Royal Slope supplied the regal name. No monarch was involved.

Potatoes, onions, corn, apples and other crops spread across the district. Food processing, trucking and farm services followed.

Agricultural workers and families, many of them Latino, became central to the community's growth.

Royal City incorporated in 1962, making the municipality younger than much of the irrigation infrastructure responsible for its existence.

The crown is imaginary.

The canals are not.
