AREA HISTORY
Redmond, Oregon, has a rich history rooted in its development as a key community in Central Oregon. Founded in 1910 by settlers seeking land for agriculture, the city was named after Redmond, Washington, the hometown of a prominent railroad executive. Initially focused on ranching and farming, Redmond evolved as a central hub for the surrounding rural areas. The railroad’s arrival in the early 20th century spurred growth, and by the 1920s, Redmond had developed into a vital trade and transportation center. The city’s location near key natural attractions, such as Smith Rock and the Cascade Mountains, contributed to its appeal. Today, Redmond is known for its vibrant community, outdoor recreational opportunities, and growing economic development.
