I am so grateful for this piece. I am looking for visit Southern Oregon and I keep reading about Medford and Grant’s Pass history.

Grants Pass is a beautiful valley community, nestled amongst beautiful mountains. But, It’s Dark and Gloomy 3 to 4 months out of the year and it rains a lot ( I can’t remember ever seeing the sun 🌞in the wintertime). Summertime is extremely 🥵 hot, high 90s to low 100s. However, if you like low Real Estate prices and Marijuana farms this may be a nice place for you. Everything is really easy to get to and there’s few really nice restaurants right off the famous “Rogue River “. People are somewhat friendly I guess , it definitely has a feel of a small town, it just looks like it’s about 30 years behind. Minorities make up a very very small segment of the population in Grants Pass- I don’t know if it’s ever gonna change. It’s also the birthplace of “Dutch Bros Coffee “
