****I too require a couple items.  It's especially tough when they've
	changed both their driver's license and vehicle registration.
	But if their home of record is Washington, they're registered
	to vote (I consider that one critical, because if they vote in
	another state, I would never give it to them), own property,
	(or one of the other items you mention), AND they can justify
	having the out-of-state driver's lic and veh reg, then I'd call
	'em a resident.
