Oregon Regions and Counties - Click on the County Links For Listings!

 

This is the typical division of the regions of Oregon.
However, there are actually many ways to divide the regions of Oregon.
It's a big, and very diverse place!

 

Oregon is over 360 miles long, and over 400 miles across. it has vastly different population areas, climate, political, historical, cultural, geographical areas, and transportation systems.

We have divided the regions according to how we see them, and sometimes the areas will change on our website. If we have a large number of listings in a certain area, we will highlight that area. It changes with trends in the real estate business and areas that we are currently showcasing.

Some of the counties in Oregon fall into several different regions, so they may be listed more than once.

Linn County

Linn County

 

Linn County is where our main office is located, 536 S. Main Street, in Lebanon. We have lived here for many years, raised our children here, and we absolutely love the area and our community! There are wonderful people here, and so much to do and see! We are still finding new things and places to explore. Lebanon is fortunate to be centrally located, so it's about an hour from the coast, an hour to the mountains, and hour to Portland, and about a half an hour to Eugene or Corvallis.

Linn County is primarily a county of farming communities. Family and community are very important hereIt is an excellent place to raise a family and run our business, we couldn't be happier here. The population of Linn County is under 150,000, Albany is the county seat. There are rivers and lakes, cultural events, concerts, large shopping stores and small boutiques, breweries, fantastic food, celebrations, festivals, car shows, parades, parks, waterfalls, covered bridges, hiking trails, and oh-so-many country roads, and you may occasionally be late because you were slowed down by a stray sheep in the road or a harvester moving to the next field. It does get its share of rain here in the valley, but as Oregonians, we know life doesn't slow down when it's raining. Linn County truly is a great place to live!

Cascade Mountains

Cascade Mountains

"The Cascade mountains extend from northern California to British Columbia. In Oregon, it comprises the Cascade Range, which is 260 miles long and, at greatest breadth, 90 miles wide. Oregon’s Cascade Range covers roughly 17,000 square miles, or about 17 percent of the state, an area larger than each of the smallest nine of the fifty United States." ~Oregonencyclopia.org
 The Cascade Range in Oregon is bordered by Hwy 97 on the east side, and I-5 to the west. Much of the area in the Cascade Range is public lands, private timber lands, and some reservation land. There are private residential properties as well. The counties listed here will be listed in other sections as well, but they do fall within the Cascade Mountain Region.

                             

Willamette Valley

 Willamette Valley

 

 

The Willamette Valley is a 150-mile long valley in Oregon, in the Pacific Northwest. The Willamette River flows the entire length of the valley, and it is surrounded by mountains on three sides – the Cascade Range to the east, the Oregon Coast Range to the west, and the Calapooya Mountains to the south. The valley is synonymous with the cultural and political heart of Oregon, and is home to approximately 70 percent of its population including the six largest cities in the state: Portland, Eugene, Salem, Gresham, Hillsboro and Beaverton. ~Wikipedia 

Central Oregon

Central Oregon

 

"Central Oregon is a place of mysterious beauty that people often believe only exists in the movies. However, it is a real place with real splendor. The land is flooded with geographical wonders as the sands of the Oregon High Desert gleam under the constant rays of sunshine. There are countless sights of volcanic rock formations that form colorful buttes and crystalline clear crater lakes. The high, majestic mountains overshadow the lands like that of an artist’s paint brush. There aren’t many places quite like Central Oregon. Because the region is located in the rain shadow of the mountains, there is an incredible statistic of 300 days of sunshine annually. This is another part of the attraction to the area! The deep, blue skies are mesmerizing against the high desert sands and red rocks. Don’t be fooled though- Central Oregon has plenty of green to share as well. With a wide variety of tree life, shrubs and plant life, the region offers the best of both worlds."~visistoregon.com

Klamath County

Klamath County

 

We love Klamath County and have spent a great deal of time exploring the area! It truly is beautiful country! The farms and ranches, quiet tranquility and wildlife are definitely a draw, but the people are what makes this area so special. It's a quieter lifestyle here, but I think most of us dream of places like this, if not to live and retire, then just to have a place to call your own and get away from it all and relax. Klamath County is vast, and there is a lot of open landscapes and sunshine. The county seat, Klamath Falls is known as the "Sunshine City" and boasts over 300 days of sunshine a year! It does get cold in the winters, but we live in the rainy Willamette Valley, and when we have had enough of the rain and want to go someplace where the sun is shining, it's almost always Klamath County!

The Sprague River area is a rural community in Klamath County, east of Chiloquin, Oregon. It is a small community of about 800 people, it feels like you are way out in the country here, yet it's only about 45 miles to Klamath Falls!

and use solar as a successful power alternative.

Oregon Coast

Oregon Coast

  

"It doesn’t get much more coastal than this region. And thanks to a pioneering beach bill, all 363 miles of Oregon’s coastline remain free and public. That means endless opportunities to comb for agates or glass floats, catch your own Dungeness crab or razor clam, watch for whales, seals and puffins, make footprints in the sand or simply be captivated by a winter storm from inside a cozy beachfront lodge. No matter the season, the Oregon Coast is a rejuvenating getaway." ~Traveloregon.com

Southern Oregon

Southern Oregon

 

Southern Oregon is incredibly diverse in geology, history, climate, population,  ecosystems, and culture, but one of the things the whole area has in common is the incredible beauty! There are clear alpine lakes, and it is home to Crater Lake National Park, wild and untamed rivers, such as the Rogue, Umpqua and Klamath, vast farmlands, orchards and vineyards and the unmatched beauty of the majestic Cascade Mountains! The dry side to the east of the cascades is arid, and more remote with (aside from Klamath Falls) smaller towns and more sparce population. The interior  Rogue, Illinois, and Applegate valleys west of the Cascades are more  populated with the larger towns of Medford, Ashland, Grants Pass, and Roseburg. There are also many small towns and farming communities. The lush green valley is where most of the larger agricultural areas of Oregon are. The entire Southern Oregon is a paradise for anyone who loves being outdoors, exploring the wilderness, fishing, hiking, horseback riding, rockhounding, birdwatching, or just enjoying the unspoiled beauty of Southern Oregon!
 

 

Eastern Oregon

Eastern Oregon

 

"The breathtaking sights of Eastern Oregon are more than picture worthy. They are memorable. From the terra-cotta red sands and hills to the dusty, desert plains to the Blue Mountains and vast, blue skies, it’s a geographical canvas filled with earthly color. Eastern Oregon consists of 8 counties in which these main cities reside: Hermiston, John Day, Baker City, La Grande, Ontario, Pendleton, Fossil, Mitchell and Burns. Hermiston is the largest city in Eastern Oregon and thrives off of major trades such as farming, tourism, timber and warehousing.
The climate in Eastern Oregon differs from that of Western Oregon. In fact, the weather is so different in the eastern side of the state that many visitors are often surprised! Oregon has the reputation of being a rainy state; however, that’s only the western side of the state. The eastern side of Oregon is dry with a mixture of desert, plains, mountains, buttes and beautiful landscapes. On a yearly basis, it receives less than 10 inches of rain! Despite much of the region being a high desert, it’s partially covered with pine and juniper forests. Although, these forests are seen in the mountainous areas. Eastern Oregon is often thought of as the last part of the Wild West. You can experience the mystery of the old ghost towns, pay a visit to the original Oregon Trail or become mesmerized by the Painted Hills." ~Visitoregon.com
