Eugene, Oregon
Anyone who's been to Eugene can tell you that's there's no where like it on earth. Nestled in the southern portion of Oregon's famous Willamette Valley, Eugene is a haven for those who love the convenience of a large metropolitan city, yet enjoy the laid-back, cozy atmosphere of a smaller town.
Known as "The World's Greatest City of the Arts and Outdoors," Eugene is well-known for its abundance of green trees, blooming flowers, rushing river paths and more. Home to the University of Oregon, Eugene is the quintessential college town, filled with proud Duck alumni, adopted fans and plenty of history (after all, the movie "Animal House" was filmed in Eugene).
