I've lived in Crescent City and Brookings for the last five years and your assessment is accurate. Other issues we face are road closures due to weather, fires and smoke from Midsummer into fall, a diminished level of goods and services, sparseness of high-end retail, lack of specialized medical care, for instance if you're in Brookings, your cardiologist is in Medford. Disproportionate rates of homelessness and noncommunicative and uncommitted home repair tradesmen. Every Home Depot is about an hour and a half apart. You're going to do a lot of Internet shopping. Many of the available homes for sale are getting snapped up by people buying them sight unseen to use them as Airbnb rentals. You won't find anything near the beach, but there are an abundance of rivers and homes for sale along them. Your best option honestly is to buy a piece of property above a floodplain and build. If you are attracted to a certain town, find a way to spend about a week there and try to figure out what's really going on before you commit.
I've worked in home health for years on the Oregon coast and I can tell you people who owned ocean view homes were so used to it that they didn't even enjoy it or care.
Portland. Oregon has a horrible time keeping any kind of specialists in rural areas. Even the spectacular Oregon coast lacks any hospitals of note. The best you’ll find is a level 3 or 4 hospital. Specialists are a joke outside of Eugene and Portland. I have worked in EMS and healthcare for 30+ years in Oregon.
It is somewhat opinion. Just a given that smaller towns will not have world class anything except friendly people (unless you run into a recent transferee who is now unhappy with decision to move here).
Unfortunately for us Oregonians, that are just “livin the dream”, it’s all still unaffordable. It went up way too fast because of your out of towners with cash. Makes me frustrated. :(
Reedsport has the chainsaw festival, a really cool skateboard park, and outdoor opportunities like fishing. They are building some really nice apartments right there in the middle of town just north of the freeway so prospects are improving for continued growth. Town of gardener is just across the bridge to the north. Port of Winchester Bay is hub for salmon fishing
This is happening all over the country..I’m currently in northwest Arkansas..huge numbers of Californians and also Texans moving here from the big cities. They bring huge equity and prices now have skyrocketed..most people born here now can’t afford homes.
Out of state investors buying up low end apts & trailor parks pricing us out of our homes of 20-30yrs…just because our She lets them do it! Food prices have almost doubled since the Pandemic! Just for example butter used to be 2$ a lbs now 5$ Pineapple juice was 1.58$ Now 4.50$
I do think Reedsport is underrated with it being half way between Coos and Florence, having easy inland access on 38 and a hospital in town. It does have decent shopping in town for basics, but it just seems like it lost its way after logging left town and its downtown is almost empty aside from the chainsaw carving. Hopefully the recent sales of the radio station and school of the arts will help bring more opportunities to the area.
Was born in Oregon in 81, I drive the coast 3-4 times a year. Newport is by far the best place to visit. I would love to move there one day, but jobs just make it difficult because it is really a tourist/fishing town.
That's the impression, but it's wrong. It's really a retirement town. If you look at income in Lincoln county, the biggest source is federal payments like Social Security and Medicare
Poor Reedsport, my hometown, isn't getting much love here, not even any film footage. It's got a few amenities: a hospital, a golf course, some decent restaurants, a museum and lots of recreation opportunities. I live in Coos Bay though, so I get it. 😄
Another thing to mention, is that although a town is located on the coast, that doesn’t necessarily mean you can see the ocean when in that town. Take Florence, for example. Oftentimes, you only see the actual ocean in glimpses when driving the 101.
Florence is not a coastal town. Florence is a river town that is near the coast. We also have many of the amenities that other towns don't have. Affordability isn't one of those amenities. 😊
We didn’t ask you to advertise for us we like our area kept as hidden as possible…I mean really who wants to come to a place where the roads often fall into the ocean, rain wind, you have to go to a bigger town to shop! No excitement you have to go inland to get warm, higher education, festivals, but those of us who love that basically like to be left alone🌊💙🌊💙🌊💙🌊
I S E C O N D !!!!!!! that. The Gorse Action Committee in the Bandon area is chock full of Californians who think they are saving us (and they just don't have enough to do. Have not figured out how to relax and enjoy the rain)
I lived in Coos Bay for decades. No way living in Coos Bay/North Bend is worth anywhere near the median home price. Maybe one day wages will catch up with cost on the Oregon Coast, but I doubt that will happen as long as out of state buyers continue to inflate property prices.
Sure. Years ago when school funding was a totally local process, Brookings was the first District that failed to pass the school budget/levy. Had enough retirees who voted no on budget that the kids were left out in the elements. Then North Bend was next. And then the State of Oregon decided to grab the deposit slips and run school funding. Tragic that folks from Somewhere, California would move here, push property values up up up and then grunch about property taxes. Seems sort of like the Bahgwhan Rajneeshi and his operation in Antelope. I have watched the Port of Coos Bay go from the "World's Largest Lumber-Shipping Port" to being lined with retail shops designed to kill the downtowns of North Bend and Coos Bay. Sad, pathetic, etc etc etc. Men were men, then.
Reedsport is nice. It is very small, but it does have 2 grocery stores, an ace hardware, and a dollar store. They have very few restaurants but they do host the chainsaw carving contest! It's a cool place. So is Winchester Bay/ Salmon Harbor. Reedsport has the Lower Umpaua Hospital. Not large but ready and able.
I used to want to live on the Oregon coast, but Ive moved inland a bit to southern Oregon instead. climate predictions dont look good for coastal regions in the next 20 years or so...
Oh we are lucky another Climate Disaster Prophet has chosen to move to Medford, Grants Pass, or Roseburg instead of making us miserable with climate drivvle . Thank you for thinking of us.
Same here, lived in Newport for a couple of years but the truth is nowhere on the Oregon coast is prepared for the big one to go off. Building those homes that close to the ocean is going to be a disaster and I hope I'm wrong but I certainly don't want to be there when it does. Other than that, you get used to the ocean after awhile and it gets boring. Life's too short to spend it all in one place.
Newport has mad homelessness and drugs. It is very beautiful, hospital is new. Waldport uses the Newport hospital and it is a sweet place with a beautiful bridge and bay.
Hmm, I have been living in Brookings for ~ 1 1/2 years and really like it. I've also lived in Gold Beach and Myrtle Point inland from Bandon. Florence has a nice places like Bay Street alongside the Siuslaw River but I'm a bit curious why you would trade Brookings for Florence. Here you have the Samuel Boardman Corridor just to the north and Crissey Field to the south, as well as some pretty decent shopping.
@@davidirwin4067 I've spent many New Year's weekends in Brookings, really like the Harbor and small town feel. ICurrenly, I live in the rate race, traffic environment. Love fishing. Spent some time in Florence, real nice place as well. Can you describe some downfalls if any. Hated to see the Steakhouse closed, O'Halloran. Awesome calamari. Thanks for your reply. My name is Dave as well.
Since you have spent New Year's here in Brookings I guess you must be fairly knowledgeable about the area. The harbor is in "Harbor" and not Brookings proper, as you know. There is no rat race here. These days I am not a home owner but an apartment dweller and have great views of the community and the ocean. Depending on your age and circumstances there is no hospital here but there is a well-equipped clinic. Gold Beach has the closest hospital in the county so that may be a downside. I suppose another downside is that the closest airport and community of significant size is Medford and that is ~2 hours from here. I'm not into fishing and so can't comment on that. We have fog and a rainy season but that is the same all along the Oregon and Washington coastlines and northern California. There are windy days also but there are few frosty days. Wherever you live there are always tradeoffs. @@pavernater
Im a Brit with a yank mrs . We are thinking of living in America for a few years. Im a carpenter and as America is pretty much all made of wood i cant see me struggling for work anywhere so thats not my main concern. But trying to get my head around the American property market is hard . Its like everything is opposite to England. Here the older the house the more value. New builds are second most valuable and mid century stuff is the cheapest. Nobody wants 20th century houses because they are ugly. The new builds are usually made to replicate the 18th century houses we all dream of but with better parking. Cities are generally cheaper except London. Small towns are the cheapest of all especially ex mining towns. country houses out on there own are the most expensive outside of London. We pay premium for a 200 year old house with no other buildings in eye shot . For us thats the dream worth millions. Best of all a 5 or 6 hundred year old house in a tiny chocolate box village with a pub and a shop . They can be 3 milion for something tiny. For America thats the cheapest thing. Really hard for me to get my head around. Ive seen nice Victorian gothic farm houses in the middle of nowhere in America for 50 k . Allso condition is a main driving factor of value in America. Nobody wants to renovate things. In Britain condition is basically irrelevant. Value is entirely location based with upto 80% of the value being in the land . You could have an old farm house with no roof windows or floors in the British country side and it would be worth a fortune. Because its a house in the country out on its own. Getting planning permission to build that from scratch is a serious undertaking so people will pay anything to not go through that process. Its strange how culture dictates the value of things more than its actual use .
Get real McIntyre. Total bay area (which includes Charleston and all nearby addresses who are part of CB/NB shopping ) is easily 35,000 sould. Thanks to the spotted owl the whole County of Coos is still only around 65,000 Other than that I guess I do not know what you said.
It absolutely is! And no matter what kind of environment you like, we have it all; high desert, ocean front, rain forests and mountains! Take your pick😉🌹
If you want to relocate to Coos County please leave your attitude that we locals need saved hidden in your closet. I am not sure my first/last sentence was correctly structured but I am thinking anyone reading it got the meaning. When faced with being the only long-time resident serving on the city planning commission I quit when the folks from California wanted to institute some ridiculous requirements for zoning in residential areas. It is pretty much live, and let live here. This discussion could get a lot deeper and wider but no need here. If you are looking for your dream please do not hold prior residents responsible when you cannot find it. Have you thought about Idaho? When the big earthquake and tsunami happen here on the Oregon south coast Idaho will have ocean-front property. Another option is to stay where you are and save everyone headaches. We have found quite a few times folks who move here end up going "home" to be near their kids, especially after one of the couple dies. So if you are independently financed and can mind your own business just please try to not pay too much when you buy property here.
An approximate 9.0 earthquake is overdue for the Oregon Coast. Watch videos about the Cascadia Subduction Zone here on UA-cam. It is totally irresponsible for a Realtor to entice people to move to the Oregon Coast. It's totally stupid to be on the Oregon Coast. Geologists have been saying that everything will be "toast" between the coast and about 60 miles inland. The bridges and roads will be decimated. The only way out of there will be by helicopter. According to Oregon law, it is illegal for a Realtor to not disclose this information.
@@LivingOnTheOregonCoast Yeah. This clear and emminant threat needs to be disclosed to every potential buyer, according to Oregon State law. The Real Estate Commission will not be able to protect you from legal liability after The Big One hits. They are overlooking it now, but their day will come. There will be a reconing. I am David Moore, a land surveyor and engineer in Albany, Oregon and a former real estate agent. I also have a degree in Business Administration from Oregon State University.
@Rockstar97321 Calm the heck down….you remind me of those crazy people holding end of the world signs. There is not one place on earth that is immune to natural disasters such as earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic irruptions, tornadoes, hurricanes, floods, ect. By your logic no one should buy a home anywhere, better yet we should leave earth altogether. 🤪
No access to inland, not easy to drive out of it because you have cape foulweather south which is a nightmare especially in the winter and up north it's pretty much the same unless you wanna be stuck at depoe bay all the time.
I love how all these real estate videos about the Oregon coast never ever mention the elephant in the room, namely, the inevitable magnitude 9 earthquake from the Cascadia subduction zone. If you're considering buying on the Oregon coast, be sure to buy something above the tsunami zone, not on a steep hillside and built since the seismic codes got decent, meaning at least since 1994 and preferably since 2001. That pretty much rules out most of astoria. Newport's Bayfront and Nye Beach also will be toast.
