Community records come from our statewide map dataset, built from Oregon geographic data (retrieved July 2026). 272 communities are listed; distance to a boundary is recorded for 253 of them. We publish what the data says and correct it when someone who lives here tells us it’s wrong.
What’s being proposed
Oregon’s Land Conservation and Development Commission is considering new rules for housing in unincorporated communities. The stated goal is more housing. The rules could also let counties raise density, expand community boundaries, and permit more intensive urban uses outside urban growth boundaries. Whether Pine Grove is affected depends on decisions that haven’t been made yet — which is why comment now matters.
