the untold TRUTH about Medford Oregon’s CRIME rate 

I’ve been thinking about moving out because I am a nature lover and found some affordable stuff in Medford

I moved to Medford last December 2021. Overall, I like it here. The locals are friendly, unassuming down to earth folks. I live in downtown so I see some sketchy activities. Meth use is very obvious. Downtown Medford has the potential to be a really cool place. Hawthorne Park can be nasty. But compared to Eugene and Portland, I like my new home

This was a nice breakdown. Love all the maps and sources. I haven't spent much time in Medford but want to because I read about some cool old goldmine history around there.

Commenting to boost your algorithm!! Keep it up

I was born in Medford Oregon. I am 37 years old and wanting to move back soon. Great Video. I have had a rough experience living in Arkansas and am highly considering moving home. I miss Medford bad.

We moved to the Medford area from Stockton, Ca., now that’s crime. Be thankful.

Lived out in White City 10+ years ago, liked Medford, love to move back now that I'm ret.

I like this video however I do feel maybe Medford was compared to larger cities Medford seems pretty high crime for the size,

People think being neurotic here is like a tough thing here. Ive seen alot of violence here and im surprised there isnt alot more with how people act. Never ever in my life thought id need a gun until i lived here

I live on west main and I have never even heard of anything violent happening. No gun shots, ever. No gang members like the kind you see wearing masks and carrying machine guns flying colors. Nothing. Worst place I have seen is the hawthorne park near the greenway near that bridge near that coffee place.

Crime is definitely getting more frequent here all the time. STAY AWAY FROM DOWNTOWN AT NIGHT, ESPECIALLY RIVERSIDE!!! Coincidentally, according to the date on the mail tribune site anyway, at the very same time u were filming this video, I was actually in Jackson County Jail on day 3 out of 20 for sleeping in my damn car in a nicer neighborhood cause I was homeless and I'm on high risk parole. In fact, I woke up to the cop opening my door, grabbing my keys, and putting his gun to my head while yelling threats to kill me if i moved an inch. I don't know what hell the callers told them but i seriously thought i was about to die but i think he felt bad once he realized that i wasn't actually doing anything wrong cause he was gonna let me go if my po hadn't have told him to lock me up. He didnt impound my car though and he let me smoke 2 cigarettes before taking me to jail so that was cool i guess but I'm still not too happy about how close he came to killing me, basically just for being an "undesirable" sleeping in the wrong neighborhood. Only reason i was living in my car is cause i can't afford rent for even the cheapest apts but at the same time, I'm trapped here on parole so i had no choice but to sleep in my car sometimes and id rather stay in nice neighborhoods cause i thought itd be safer but since I'm broke, geographically restricted, and homeless off and on, its alot easier and more profitable to just lock me up and make it even harder to make positive changes just to kick me back to the streets to repeat the cycle only even worse off than i was to begin with. I'm not proud of my past but Im actually a very honest and respectful person, just trying my best to give my kids a way better life than i ever had growing up so u can probably, hopefully get a better idea of what a goddamn shithole Medford REALLY can be unless you're rich or retired.

When someone from there says “you don’t belong here.” Believe them. And leave.

Medford at a C is perfect. Medford is a C student who could be better. The sad part is when you're from there and can remember the 90's/00's when they used to try. Tinseltown opening was a big deal. Dutch Brothers becoming something to write home about was a big deal. Harry and David expanding their facilities and always trying to keep people employed was a big deal. Expanding the mall was a big deal. The Bear Creek Greenway being updated and cared for was a big deal. The airport becoming 'international' was a big deal. Then at the end of the 00's when the '08 recession came, outside forces cynically shit all over everything the community had built and it never came back.

where's a safe place in this earth?.. I went to PVR 3 weeks ago and someone took all my money.. meanwhile here in US I lost my cat. :')

I was a Mailman there and got a ticket for jay walking. And it took 6 cops.

I grew up in Medford left for 5 years and moved to Ashland Oregon about 8 months ago. Southern Oregon is ruined. This place has drastically changed in a matter of 5 measly years. You have the homeless and drug addicts destroying the affordable sides of town and the rich Californians making everything unaffordable. Sad times in Oregon. GOD bless ✝️🙏

I'm actually from San Antonio. Don't move there. I left for a reason

Is this spill about my family's safety or selling me real estate? I have lived in the area for over 30 years, and it is sad to see this area decline so much.

Moved from Medford after 30 years of living there....if you go to the park you ill see a needle. If you live there you will be in constant danger.

Bro really thinks “Houseless” is better than “homeless” 💀 Miss me with that euphemism treadmill BS
