Durham: Washington County - Scholls Ferry Rd at Teal Blvd
Scholls Ferry Road has served as a rural route in Washington County since the 19th century. At Teal Boulevard, it runs through the wooded, low-density southern edge of the Portland metropolitan area, where homes, small businesses and remaining open land meet a busy two-lane corridor. The road’s name recalls Scholl’s Ferry, a historic crossing of the Tualatin River that helped connect early settlements in this part of Oregon. Today the junction belongs to the suburban landscape between Beaverton, Tigard and the Tualatin River valley, rather than central Durham itself. Forested roadside cover gives this stretch a different character from the commercial corridors nearer Portland.

Among the cities of Oregon, Durham stands out for its compact setting beside the Tualatin River in Portland’s southern suburbs. The river, a tributary of the Willamette, links this small incorporated community to a waterway that winds through Washington County before joining the wider valley system. Durham is connected to the wider metropolitan area by nearby Interstate 5, yet its riverbank position gives it a distinct identity beyond the surrounding commercial corridors. The city is named for pioneer A. A. Durham, whose name remains part of this corner of the Tualatin Valley.

The Cascade Range and high desert define much of Oregon, shaping a state where forestry, farming, hydropower and outdoor recreation are central to regional life. The Columbia River forms much of its northern border, while the Willamette Valley supports fertile farmland between the Cascades and the Coast Range. Oregon’s Pacific shore is marked by long beaches, headlands and working coastal towns, and Crater Lake preserves the deep caldera of Mount Mazama in the south. Oregon City is associated with the historic end of the Oregon Trail, a reminder of the migration that transformed the nineteenth-century American West.

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.
