Among the 60 largest places in Oregon, Ontario has the lowest median rent ($804), followed by Pendleton and La Grande. Click any column to sort; click a city for its guide.
Across the 60 places in Oregon that we cover, the median is $1,489 and the average $1,539; the figure runs from $804 (Ontario) to $2,654 (Damascus). That is a spread of 3.3 times between the two ends. The state figure is $1,525; 29 of the 60 places are above it and 31 at or below.
The first five are Ontario, Pendleton, La Grande, Klamath Falls, The Dalles. A high or low position is not good or bad on its own: low rent can reflect a smaller job market or older housing stock, so look at income and commute too. Use the Compare tab on each city page to see how two places differ across income, rent, commute and education, and check the county page for the local job market.
