Milwaukie

As a visitor, you will have difficulty discriminating between the neighborhoods of southwest Portland and the city of Milwaukie. We will not make this discrimination on this page.

In recent years southwest Portland has been found by both businesses and those who live in the Portland area.

Originally Milwaukie was a farming community. The Bing Cherry was developed here.

The City of Milwaukie has a history page.

Visit the site.

Here is a great page we found concerning area museums.
