Salem, Oregon

Salem, the capital of the state of Oregon, USA, is located on the Willamette River, 80 km southwest of Portland. The city has 169,798 residents (U.S. Census, 2017).

Indigenous peoples, including the Kalapuya tribe, lived in the area for thousands of years with the Willamette Valley as their main area. The first whites who settled here in 1812 were fur hunters from Astoria, Oregon. Methodist priest Jason Lee led a group that came to the area in 1840 and established the forerunner to Salem – Wheatland – in 1842.

Salem is a trading center with some industry, especially in food processing. Willamette University is located in Salem, which became the capital of the Oregon Territory in 1851, and the state capital when Oregon became a state in the United States in 1859. Every year in August, a major State Fair is held in the city.
