Lots of good info and thoughtful responses here. As a Dalles resident, I'll sum up the difference between the two towns with a simple question that'll drastically help answer where you want to live. Is your clothing/lifestyle of preference a colorful Northface, Columbia, Patagonia, or Saloman jacket with Hoka/Brooks/Merrell shoes? ....or would you rather wear overalls with Ariat boots?

Can speak to the healthcare. They have Mid Columbia Medical Center. Would be a decent place but it’s overwhelmed and understaffed at the moment. Forget about getting timely specialty care anywhere in the gorge. Plan on staying healthy, get a PCP, and needing to occasionally go in to PDX.


Not sure how much this matters yet but Mid Columbia Medical Center is no longer associated with OHSU. Might make for some big changes in the near future related to health care in The Dalles?
Beyond that the whole gorge & The Dalles is a great place to be living right now!


It’s a super weird relationship they have. While they aren’t associated with OHSU anymore, they are getting acquired by Adventist which is associated with OHSU… I work for both and I still don’t understand it.

Thanks all for the beta!

We don't want to pay HR prices, help us find a rental for the summer to try before we buy Smile

This was in the news this week. MCMC has a history of tension with employees. I have lost 2 doctors in the last couple of years. As much as I like The Dalles, it does have more of a crime and homeless issue compared to Hood River and White Salmon.
