As of the 2010 census, the population was 72,797.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://quickfacts.census.gov/qfd/states/53/53027.html )〕 The county seat is Montesano,〔(【引用サイトリンク】accessdate=2011-06-07 )〕 and its largest city is Aberdeen. The county is named after a large estuarine bay near its southwestern corner. On May 7, 1792, Boston fur trader Robert Gray crossed the bar into the bay he called Bullfinch Harbor, but which later cartographers would label Chehalis Bay, and then Grays Harbor.
The county, originally named Chehalis County, was formed out of Thurston County on April 14, 1854. Its name was subsequently changed to Grays Harbor County by the Washington legislature, effective June 9, 1915. The name change helped eliminate confusion resulting from the fact that the city named Chehalis was in Lewis County.〔
Grays Harbor County comprises the Aberdeen, WA Micropolitan Statistical Area.
