Buena, Washington

Buena is an unincorporated community in Yakima County, Washington, with a 2020 census population of 1048. In the 2010 census, the population was 990, and the community was not recognized in the 2000 census figures. Buena is north of Toppenish. Buena has a post office with ZIP code 98921.
The settlement was originally named Springdale for a nearby spring, but its name was changed to Jonathan in 1918 to avoid conflicting with an existing Springdale when a post office was created. The Northern Pacific Railway constructed a siding through Jonathan in 1919 and named it Buena with an Anglicized pronunciation.
