City of Milwaukie
Nestled along the banks of the Willamette River and steeped in a rich history, Milwaukie enjoys the comforts of a small town, as well as the benefits of its close location to Portland. The pioneering spirit and determination that inspired Milwaukie’s founders is still felt today from the people that make up this unique city. Milwaukie strives to stay true to itself and the spirit of the community, even if that’s unconventional at times, while upholding a strong sense of optimism that keeps everyone persistent in their pursuit for shared successes. Woven through the fabric of the community is the value placed on ingenuity. Milwaukie prizes creativity to get things done by finding innovative solutions, and residents embrace originality to find new ideas that better the community. Together, these strengths have contributed to the recently-completed visioning process that received an outpouring of support from the community, and led Milwaukie to receive the 2017 Award for Public Involvement and Participation from the Oregon chapter of the American Planning Association. They can also be found in the city’s robust and thriving business community. With more than 1,500 companies, including Blount International, Bob’s Red Mill, Dark Horse Comics and Precision Castparts Corporation, Milwaukie is home to several of Oregon’s largest and most iconic employers. These same values drive events in Milwaukie each year. The Umbrella Parade and Tree Lighting, Winter Solstice and Christmas Ships Party, Earth Day Clean-Up, Sunday Farmers Market, First Fridays, and neighborhood concerts combine creativity and positivity to help bring the community closer together. Like the founders before them, the people of Milwaukie know the city is destined for great things, and all are welcome to join with the community as it forges its own path to success.
