Located in Josephine County, Medford is a large city lying along the Interstate 5 corridor between Grants Pass and Ashland. It is the fourth largest metropolitan area in Oregon and a popular destination point for visitors interested in exploring the natural wonders nearby, including Crater Lake, the Rogue River and the Oregon Caves. Because it sits in the rain shadows of both the Cascade Mountains and the Siskiyou Mountains, Medford and the surrounding region is considerably warmer and drier than the Willamette Valley areas further north. |
