Among the 60 largest places in Oregon, Central Point has the smallest share of long commutes (2.1%), followed by Medford and Klamath Falls. Click any column to sort; click a city for its guide.
Across the 60 places in Oregon that we cover, the median is 11.1% and the average 11.2%; the figure runs from 2.1% (Central Point) to 30.7% (St. Helens). That is a spread of 14.8 times between the two ends. The state figure is 11.6%; 29 of the 60 places are above it and 31 at or below.
The first five are Central Point, Medford, Klamath Falls, Bend, Coos Bay. A high or low position is not good or bad on its own: short commutes can mean a self-contained job market or a small town with few employers. 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.
