Ashland: KDRV
The landscape around Ashland is a transition between the Rogue Valley floor and the foothills of the Siskiyou Mountains, which has shaped both the built environment and local life. Ashland Creek runs from the mountains through town and Lithia Park, a large wooded public park near the center. The compact downtown is known for independent shops, restaurants and early-20th-century commercial buildings, while residential streets rise toward the surrounding slopes. Since 1935, the Oregon Shakespeare Festival has made Ashland an important performing-arts center, presenting plays in the Angus Bowmer Theatre and the outdoor Allen Elizabethan Theatre. Southern Oregon University adds a year-round academic presence to this small city near the California border.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
