Talent is located in Oregon's beautiful Rogue River Valley, just off Interstate 5. We are located seven miles south of Medford and four miles north of Ashland, in Jackson County. Temperatures vary from 20 to 65 degrees in winter, with occasional fog and snow. Summer temperatures are 65 to 110 degrees, with cool nights. Between 2002-2006 Talent experienced a period of residential and commercial growth. New subdivisions and apartment complexes. During this housing time housing prices increased making it more difficult for lower income working families to become home owners. While several other developments have been approved, construction has slowed down since 2007. It is expected that this will turn around but not in the near future. Housing prices are also stabilizing. The Urban Renewal Agency and the Historical Society meet regularly to discuss ideas for further development, refurbishment of the town, and historical preservation.
