Medford: ORE62 at Rogue Valley Mall Ent
Medford has served as a commercial and rail centre in Oregon’s Rogue Valley since the late 19th century. The city developed along Bear Creek, a tributary of the Rogue River, in a broad valley framed by the Cascade Range to the east and the Siskiyou Mountains to the south. OR 62 is one of Medford’s principal urban routes, linking the commercial districts around Rogue Valley Mall with the city centre and routes toward Crater Lake National Park. Agriculture remains part of the region’s identity: the Rogue Valley is long associated with pear orchards, while Medford has grown into southern Oregon’s leading centre for shopping, healthcare and services.
