The City of Sumas is located in Whatcom County in the northwest corner of Washington State along the Canadian Border. Sumas is a busy border crossing into Abbotsford, BC, Canada. Sumas is one of only four border crossings from Whatcom County and Western Washington into Canada.

Sumas lies at the northeast end of the farmlands created by the Nooksack River in western Whatcom County. East of Sumas are the foothills of the Cascade Mountain Range. The main base of the economy in Sumas is agricultural with some border crossing economy and in recent years an industrial area west of town developed by the Port of Bellingham.
