Located at the center of western Oregon, our region, also known as Lane County, stretches from the Oregon Coast through the southern section of the Willamette Valley to the Cascade Mountains. One could feasibly spend the morning hiking or skiing in the mountains, have lunch and do a little shopping in Eugene, and then drive to the coast for sunset and a stroll on the beach! But why rush? When you live here, you can do all of that at your own pace.The diverse geography and climate provides an ideal niche for every enthusiast. Eugene is known for its running and bike trails and birders, hikers and swimmers love it here too. Surfers, ocean fishermen and boaters are drawn to the rugged coastline, while skiers, fly-fishers, whitewater rafters and kayakers embrace the mountains. Ranked at #8 in Livability’sBest Places to Live (2016), Eugene gets extra points for its great downtown. If you are moving to the Eugene, Cascades & Coast region, we welcome you home!
