Located at the southernmost end of the Portland metropolitan area, Wilsonville is the gateway to the verdant Willamette Valley. Once a small farming community, Wilsonville is now a thriving mid-size city whose residents enjoy both modern, urban amenities, as well as the small-town charms of "country living" just 17 miles from downtown Portland. Adjacent Interstate 5 and the Willamette River, Wilsonville is a business-friendly community that provides a coveted location. Over half the city's jobs are in family-wage industries: high-tech manufacturing, software engineering and wholesale distribution. The combined Wilsonville payroll exceeds $1 billion.
