Talk:Buckley, Washington

Untitled

Does anyone know where the name for "Mundy Loss rd" came from?

In the History section, in the year 2007 the following statement is made: The first homicide in Buckley since the turn of the century occurred on February 1, 2007. A man was murdered by a woman on Highway 410. The man was shot several times in the head in front of a local tavern.

When it refers to the turn of the century, is that the 19th or 20th century? —Preceding unsigned comment added by LocalGirl (talk • contribs) 04:47, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

Can someone add a reference to this about the 1996 movie "Black Sheep" with Chris Farley & David Spade [1] that was set in the town of Buckley, WA. It included several references to "small town rural life" like how residents drive slow and how the town has no street signs (of course this is not really the case).

I think it would be interesting to put something in about the Log Show since it is such a big part of Buckley and brings in a lot of tourist activity to the community — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rdunn23 (talk • contribs) 05:47, 18 October 2013 (UTC)

Mundy and Loss are two families 2601:603:A7F:D232:5C3B:310:C3D0:7969 (talk) 12:10, 13 May 2022 (UTC)

That road runs from Buckley Sumner Hwy in the north south to Hwy 165. The names Loss and Mundy show up in the old "Buckley Banner" newspaper ..."Nicholas Loss dies". There are Mundys buried in the Buckley cemetery. I know, I keep wondering What did Mr. Mundy Lose? But it looks more routine than that. 2601:603:A7F:D232:5C3B:310:C3D0:7969 (talk) 12:17, 13 May 2022 (UTC)

Crime Statistics

Something is awfully wrong in this town if the crime indices shown here are indeed correct! 20.3 rapes, 182.7 burglaries, 2,800.9 thefts, 324.7 auto thefts, and 101.5 counts of arson per 1000 inhabitants!!!!. I will take them out for now. --Cosal (talk) 17:44, 16 January 2019 (UTC)
