ARROW Renton High School 400 South 2nd Street Renton, Wash. 98057

THE MOST DIVERSE ZIP CODE IN THE NATION I S R I G H T U P T H E S T R E E T CAP-SIZED PRIDE: When ARROW explored the most diverse zip code in the nation, they noticed a disturbing lack of regional swag. Sure, they found two-oh-six gear representing the Seattle area code, but still, 98118 warranted its own fitted, signature apparel. ARROW comissioned Lids to custom make this hat for the 98118 community for a price of $29.55, including tax.

UNDER THE BRIM: Reporters visit three congregations, including a journey for Catholic Vanessa Abenojar and Buddhist Tony Nguyen into a temple (page 10). Three staff members sit in a metro for three hours while one scours the streets after the sun comes down. A park, a library, the Seattle mayor, a teacher, an elderly couple and more, all featured in this issue.

FITTED: This publication is made for the people of 98118, and ARROW hopes the next eleven pages will do justice in representing the nuance and new age of the area. As local artist Blue Scholars rap in their hit “North by Northwest”: “Nine eight double-one eight / the alphabetically 2nd-to-last state, never finished in last place / Like the Mariners for 3 years straight.”
