About the City:
The City of Tillamook is located on the northern coast of Oregon next to Tillamook Bay. Tillamook is easily located by traveling 74 miles west of Portland. Tillamook was the first community to be settled in Tillamook County and was first established as a port and logging center and still remains the urban and industrial center of Tillamook County. Tillamook's population is 4,656.

Tillamook first bore the name Hoquarton, believed to be an Indian name meaning "the landing". Later the name was changed to Tillamook, meaning "Land of Many Waters". The first settler to Tillamook was Joseph Champion, who came in 1851 and made his home in a hollow spruce tree he called his "castle". Within months other settlers came and in 1852, the first two families arrived to make their homes. Each successive year brought more families and on December 15, 1853, Tillamook County was created by an act of legislature and in 1891 Tillamook became an incorporated city.
