Springfield, Oregon

Tucked between the emerald ridgelines of the Willamette Valley and the untamed beauty of the Cascade foothills, Springfield, Oregon is a rising gem for those craving space to breathe and room to roam—without sacrificing style. Just across the river from Eugene, this laid-back sister city is quietly cultivating its own identity: creative, outdoorsy, and refreshingly unpretentious. Think sunrise trail runs in the Thurston Hills, followed by brunch at a hyperlocal café where the sourdough is house-fermented and the coffee roasted just down the block. Here, tree-lined streets lead to artist studios, vintage markets, and microbreweries that double as community gathering spaces.

Springfield blends Pacific Northwest grit with a new wave of maker-driven charm. The revitalized downtown hums with energy—where murals bloom on brick walls, indie boutiques stock heritage outdoor gear, and locals spill out of farm-to-table bistros onto twinkle-lit patios. Just minutes from iconic hiking, kayaking, and waterfall trails, it’s a basecamp for adventure and a sanctuary for creative minds. For those seeking a place where lifestyle and landscape align, Springfield offers something rare: an authentic, evolving town that’s still a little undiscovered—and all the more magnetic because of it.

Neighboring City of Eugene 

Ranked 9th on the Livability Top 100 Best Places to Live, the friendly community of Eugene has something for everyone. Tucked between the Cascade Mountains and the Oregon Coast, Eugene offers a vibrant mix of culture, creativity, and outdoor adventure. Known for its progressive spirit and world-class recreation, this university town is home to lush green spaces, nationally renowned running trails, a thriving food and arts scene, and the University of Oregon’s rich academic and athletic energy.

Whether you're biking along the Willamette River, hiking forested trails, or unwinding at a local vineyard or craft brewery after hours, Eugene blends natural beauty with urban amenities in a way that few places can. Add in excellent schools, a regional airport with direct flights to major hubs, and a welcoming, community-minded population—and you’ve got a place that’s easy to call home.

Come experience the wide array of restaurants, visit the fermentation district, and entertainment venues that make this a true urban playground. Eugene boasts cultural amenities typical of larger cities, from the Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art to the world-famous Oregon Bach Festival, and is home to the University of Oregon - Go Ducks! Historic Hayward field hosted the Olympic Trials in 2021, NCAA Track & Field Championships, and the World Athletics Championships in 2022. It truly is a place to experience and love!
