Sandy, Oregon

Welcome to Sandy, Oregon, a city with a population of over 5,300. Sandy is located on the Mt. Hood Highway (U.S. 26) between Portland and Mt. Hood where residents enjoy a mild climate, clean air, good water, beautiful scenic views in a country setting, and all the advantages of small-town living while being only 45 minutes from the urban amenities of downtown Portland.

U.S. Highway 26 remains a major thoroughfare for travelers and for commerce; agriculture is central to the area's economic stability; and industrial activity is increasing. However, the prominent attraction to Sandy continues to be "it's a great place to live".

Residents of Sandy enjoy a mild, climate, clean air, fresh water and beautiful scenic views in a country setting. Sandy's heritage includes a history of sawmills and logging, though the economic activity today comes from a wide variety of industries. Agriculture continues to be instrumental in the area's economic stability through both berry crops and nursery stock. The tourism associated with the traffic to and from Mt. Hood is also central to the livelihood of the local business district.

Sandy offers a variety of housing options. Although prices for homes all over Oregon are on the rise, so are the standards of appearance and quality. You will find most homes fall within the $130,000 - $250,000 range, but if luxury is what you're after, you can find that too!

Rental properties are available in and around Sandy with many new developments underway. If you prefer solitude, you can retreat to Sandy's secluded outskirts and have all the benefits of country living while being just minutes from the city.
