TIGARD
Washington County • Oregon Local
Tigard incorporated as a city in 1961
In 1852, like many towns in the Willamette Valley, settlers and settler families called this area known as “East Butte”, their new home. The most noteworthy was the Tigard family, headed by Wilson M. Tigard. As of 2022, Tigard’s family home stands at the corner of SW Canterbury Lane and SW 103rd.
“East Butte” was renamed Tigardville in 1886. The town was renamed Tigard in 1907 by the railroad to better its promotion as a railroad destination. In 1961, Tigard was incorporated as city. Its motto is: “A Place to Call Home”.
