2020 Map of Medford West

About this map

The hills of western Medford and the historic streets of Jacksonville form the heart of this landscape in Jackson County. The area is defined by a sophisticated network of water management, including the Phoenix Canal, Hopkins Canal, and the Talent Middle Canal, which feed the surrounding valley. Along the western edge, the terrain transitions into the steep elevations of Britt Ridge and Britt Canyon, where Rich Gulch and Poormans Cr descend toward the valley floor. Transportation history is visible through labels for the Old Military Rd and Old Stage Rd, which parallel modern corridors. Genealogical sites are well-represented by the historic Jacksonville Cem, Griffin Creek Cem, and Memory Gardens Cem, providing specific points of interest for local researchers and family historians.
