A rural, riverfront community in Southwest Oregon

Despite its metropolitan name, Tri-City is a country community next to the South Umpqua River where some people may own more cattle than cars. “I grew up here, and it’s really just recently expanding,” says Jason Mann, the Broker/Owner of J Mann Realty, who has lived in the area his whole life. “The big draw is that the taxes are cheaper here, and it’s right on Interstate 5 if you need to go somewhere.” The neighborhood has a small-town vibe, with just a couple of stores and gas stations, according to Esther Guarino, a Broker/Realtor with Trueblood Real Estate and ten-year resident of the Roseburg area. “It’s very community-oriented; during the summer, they hold a lot of events like movies in the park and parades,” she says.

Oregon wildfire season

Wildfire season happens every year in Oregon between July and October. The Division of Financial Regulation, the Oregon insurance regulator, requires wildfire coverage in every homeowner policy. Oregon Wildfire Response and Recovery advises people to create a 30-foot space around their homes for prevention. FEMA, or the Federal Emergency Management Agency, offers additional tips and resources. Also, the Douglas Forest Protective Association and Coos Forest Protective Association work with the Oregon Department of Forestry to prevent wildfires.
