The Rogue Valley is a thriving agricultural hub located along the Rogue River in Southern Oregon. At the heart of this valley is the city of Medford. Sheltered by the Cascade and Siskiyou mountain ranges, the weather in Medford is delightful, with warmer temperatures year-round. It is also sunny, with fewer rainy days than the rest or Oregon. Snowfall is also less substantial, averaging only about five inches a year.

Great weather means life in your new Medford apartment will probably involve many outdoor adventures. Your new favorite place may be Crater Lake, a gorgeous location with the purest water on earth. Sheer cliffs, nearly 2,000 feet high, surround the stunning lake, one of the deepest lakes in the country. Crater Lake National Park is open year-round and is popular in winter for snow-shoeing and cross-country skiing. Warmer months are popular with cyclists, who enjoy taking on the demanding 33-mile Rim Drive. Camping and hiking are also popular activities in the park.

The climate in Medford makes it ideal for vineyards, and wineries dot the landscape. In addition to touring wineries, area residents enjoy great food – this is where Harry & David began, after all. Festivals celebrating food and wine are abundant, from the Pear Blossom Festival to Taste of Summer. Taste of Harry & David is a great event featuring food and wine from the region.

From skiing at Mt. Ashland to playing golf to visiting museums, Medford residents enjoy a wide variety of adventure. They also enjoy great shops, restaurants, museums, art galleries, and theaters. Become a part of this remarkable community by renting your Medford apartment today.
