This list of cities and unincorporated communities in the U.S. state of Oregon includes all incorporated cities and many unincorporated communities, arranged in alphabetical order. Unincorporated communities are identified with italic type.
Cities are the only form of municipal government incorporated in Oregon.[1] While villages and hamlets exist in Oregon, they are created by Clackamas County only,[2] and do not resemble municipalities due to the limited nature of their powers and their lack of home-rule charters.[3]
This list does not distinguish villages, hamlets, and other forms of local organization in Oregon; they are shown below as unincorporated communities and are shown in italics. In addition, some formerly freestanding communities have been partially or wholly subsumed by neighboring cities or abandoned and turned into ghost towns; these also are represented in italics but are marked an asterisk (*) to distinguish them from unincorporated communities.
