The word "Yelm" comes from the Coast Salish word "shelm" which means "land
of the dancing spirits" their interpretation of the moir effect of heat
rising off the prairie.
The Yelm Prairie was originally inhabited by members of the Nisqually Indian
Tribe. The first permanent European-American settlers came in 1853 to join
the Hudson's Bay Company sheep farmers who were already in the area.
Yelm was officially incorporated on December 10, 1924.
Present day Yelm is a bedroom community for residents working in the
surrounding cities of Tacoma, Olympia and Centralia. Yelm also hosts a large
number of military families who are currently or were formerly stationed at
nearby Fort Lewis and McChord Air Force Base.
