Center is a small place in Jefferson County, Washington, United States. It's known as an unincorporated community. This means it's a group of homes and businesses that isn't officially a town or city with its own local government. Instead, it's managed by the county.
The name "Center" was given because people once thought it was the middle point of Jefferson County. However, it's actually located quite a bit to the east of the county's true center now. So, Center isn't a town you'd find on a map with clear borders, but rather a name for this residential area within the county.
