Nestled in the foothills of Jackson County is he town of Central Point Oregon. The town was founded in 1852 by a pioneer named Isaac Constant, a man who like many other pioneers of his generation, came out to Oregon with his family and created a life here.
The town officially got it’s name because it’s located at a crossroads, right in the middle of the Rogue Valley. Thankfully, it quickly became one of the most popular settlements in the State of Oregon and soon had a store and post office in the town.
