Silver Creek is an unincorporated community in Lewis County, Washington, United States.

A second theory posits that reflections off the creek bed signified the possibility of silver in the waterway.

[2][3] One of the earliest non-indigenous settlers in the area was the John Tucker family, creating a homestead in 1868.

The first post office was established in the Tucker home and a family member oversaw postal duties in the community for nearly five decades.

As this is an unincorporated community, there are no defined bounds, and the precinct may be incongruous with the census boundaries.
