Bend, Oregon

Surrounded by astounding geographical beauty, Bend is one of the fastest growing cities in the nation. It is a combination of urban cool, western hospitality and endless outdoor recreational activities. The greater Bend metro area population exceeds 165,000 and we serve a referral area encompassing most of Oregon east of the Cascades. One of the best destination ski resort in the state of Oregon, Mt. Bachelor is 20 minutes from downtown Bend, and there are numerous cross country trails and snowmobile parks nearby. Summer sports include hiking, rock climbing at Smith Rock, fishing (lake and river), kayaking, mountain biking, river sports, and over two dozen golf courses are within a thirty-mile radius. The public school system is strong and there are private school options at all grade levels. Oregon State University’s Cascade Campus in Bend is a full four-year university, which offers a few graduate programs, and Central Oregon Community College (COCC) offers 60 programs of study. A regional airport connects Bend/Redmond to Portland, Seattle, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Salt Lake City, Denver and Chicago.
