Deming is located in Whatcom County

Whatcom County is a county located in the U.S. state of Washington. Its name ultimately derives from a Nooksack word meaning "noisy water." As of 2000, the population was 166,814. The county seat is at Bellingham, which is also the county's largest city. Whatcom County's northern border is the international boundary with the Canadian province of British Columbia; adjoining the county on the north are four of metropolitan Vancouver's suburbs, with several shopping malls and other services in Bellingham and elsewhere in the county geared to cross-border shopping and recreation. Crossing points are at Blaine (Peace Arch) (Interstate 5), Lynden (SR 539), and Sumas (SR 9).

Whatcom County is the #1 producer of raspberries in the state. According to the Seattle Times, in 2004 Whatcom County growers produced 46 million pounds of raspberries, 85% of the state's crop. Given that the state itself is the #1 producer of raspberries in the country, with over 87.8% of the crop in 2002, this makes Whatcom County responsible for over half the nation's supply.
