About West Linn

West Linn is a community of approximately 26,570 residents in Clackamas County, OR. This close-knit community values compassionate, local service providers who understand the bond between families and their pets.

Hillside homes with river and forest views dominate, with newer construction concentrated in the Tanner Basin and Rosemont Summit areas.

Large single-family homes on sloped lots with daylight basements, plus some newer planned-development townhomes near the I-205 corridor.

Local Considerations

  • Steep terrain and narrow roads in the Bolton and Sunset neighborhoods create significant access challenges for emergency vehicles.
  • Proximity to the Willamette River exposes lower-elevation properties to flood risk during high-water winter events.

Water System

South Fork Water Board supplies the city from the Clackamas River via a treatment facility shared with Oregon City.

Emergency Access

I-205 provides freeway access but local hillside streets are winding and narrow, complicating response during winter ice events.
