Cornelius

Cornelius lies in Oregon’s Tualatin Valley, a broad agricultural basin west of Portland, with the Coast Range rising farther west. The city developed as a farming community and was incorporated in 1893; it takes its name from Thomas R. Cornelius, a 19th-century Oregon entrepreneur associated with the region’s rail development. Fields, nurseries and vineyards remain part of the surrounding Washington County landscape, while Portland’s metropolitan area is close enough to shape everyday life. Cornelius represents the working rural-urban edge of northwest Oregon rather than a resort town. Move on to other webcams in the region to compare landscapes and settings around the Tualatin Valley.
