Gutters for Lynden.
Lynden sits up in the open farm country north of Bellingham toward the border, a Dutch-heritage town surrounded by flat, exposed fields. The gutter challenge here is different from the tree-shaded Bellingham neighborhoods. Out in the open, wind drives the rain sideways and puts real stress on gutter, and the wind that comes down the valley can work loose any gutter that was not hung securely in the first place.
So in Lynden we hang gutter with tighter hanger spacing for a secure hold against the wind, and we lean toward oversized downspouts to move the volume when wind-driven rain is sheeting off a roof faster than usual. Less tree cover means fewer clog problems than in town, but the open exposure makes a solid, well-anchored install the priority. We size and secure it for the conditions out here.

Open exposure and valley wind drive rain sideways and stress gutter hangers. We use tighter hanger spacing and oversized downspouts to hold up and move the volume.
