Region & Climate
High desert with mostly mild winters and many days of sunshine. Throughout the year, the temperature in Madras varies between a low of 23°F and a high of 90°F. The city also experiences an annual precipitation of 11 inches. In Madras, the humidity level remains comfortable throughout the summer, providing a pleasant environment for residents and visitors alike.
History
The town incorporated in 1910, and the Oregon Trunk Railroad and Deschutes Railroad Co. both arrived in 1911.
In 1937, over twenty years after a local irrigation district formed, the Roosevelt Administration approved the Deschutes Project, which brought irrigation water to nearly 60,000 acres in central Jefferson County’s North Unit Irrigation District. In 1946, irrigation water finally reached the district, and the dry-land wheat country soon turned green. The irrigation project created a land rush and a population boom in Madras and the surrounding area, and the farmland around the town would eventually produce some of the world’s finest mint and seed crops.
Farming and ranching continue to be an important part of the local economy. Bright Wood Corporation, a wood-remanufacturing plant owned by the Stovall family, employs approximately 650 people at its Madras plant. Deer Ridge Correctional Institution, a state prison, is also located just east of Madras.
The town’s location at the junction of U.S. Highways 97 and 26 make Madras a popular spot for travelers on their way to central Oregon. With strong influences from both Hispanics and Native Americans and a century-long relationship with the neighboring Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs (the tribal children come to Madras for middle and high school), Madras has grown into a multicultural community with a 2020 population of nearly 7,456 people.
