Montesano buffers between Grays Harbor coastal tourism and Chehalis County timber-town permanence. Main Street rooms fill with families who've been here since the logging days, while Pioneer Avenue hosts the workers navigating the industry transition. Fleet Street draws the local energy. Wynoochee and Satsop add the rural layers. The comedy here reads the tension between seasonal tourism and year-round community. Open mics become the space where both identities converge. Comics who grasp Montesano's dual rhythm find audiences relieved someone recognized the county seat keeps its working-class roots while the coast draws the visitors.
