My grandpa grew up in Medford! It's a tiny town, but it's cozy and the weather is SO much nicer than up here in Portland. More sun, less rain. I can't help you with any of the other stuff because I've only ever visited, but I wish I could transplant their weather up north a few hours!
Where are you moving from?

Its usually 10-20 degrees in Winter with lots of snow and I really really hate that.
Tiny town, really? I thought the population looked high for us and was considering Eagle Point :: BUT our current town has 3000 residents
If you don't mind I would love to talk to you. Can you PM me your phone# and a couple of good times to call?
You're up early! I was just thinking - Geeze I should have posted in a few hours, all those peeps over there are still in bed!

I loved Eagle Point, it was small but had enough shopping that I wasn't running to Medford. I'd avoid White city or Central point (mainly White City) if your looking for outskirts of Medford.

I'm in the metro area of Portland. We have family in Medford and visit regularly. The weather is very nice there in the summer. Much drier than the Willamette Valley up north. The Rogue Valley gets this air inversion thing and gets socked in during the winter months. Gray and depressing in my opinion. Medford is more conservative politically and Ashland is more liberal. Ashland is just a few miles south of Medford. Our family has a cabin at Lake of the Woods. So beautiful up in the mountains. Fairly close to Crater Lake. I hope this helps.

I think most of Oregon is very depressing in the winter all 9 months of it-
Yes, Ashland is very liberal-I think much more then Eugene even.Each day is a fresh start
Never look back on regrets
Live life to the fullest
We only get one shot at this!!
