Liberty Park Homes for Rent

Liberty Park, located just north of downtown Medford, is a neighborhood characterized by its proximity to major commercial areas and thoroughfares like Riverside Avenue and Central Avenue. Despite having the lowest average home value in Medford, the area benefits from local businesses and nonprofits such as Kids Unlimited of Oregon and Living Opportunities. Riverside Drive is a hub for popular restaurants and small businesses, featuring Fiesta Restaurant and Market, which offers authentic Mexican cuisine and a Latin market, and Northwest Pine Apple, known for its healthy acai bowls and smoothies. Tequila Night Club adds to the nightlife with Latin music. For grocery needs, residents can visit nearby Trader Joe’s or Safeway. The neighborhood is well-connected, with Riverside Avenue (State Route 99) providing access to the Rogue Valley Mall and downtown Medford, while Interstate 5 offers routes to Ashland and California. Children in Liberty Park attend Jackson Elementary and McLoughlin Middle School before moving on to the highly rated South Medford High School, which offers college credit courses and specialized facilities. Housing in Liberty Park predominantly consists of one-level cottages and bungalows with Craftsman details, mostly built around 1930. The area attracts renters and buyers due to its lower price points, though some homes may require repairs. Liberty Park itself is a small greenspace with a play set, while the larger Hawthorne Park nearby features extensive amenities including a playground, basketball court, splash pad, and skate area. The Bear Creek Greenway trail, though frequented by the unhoused, provides a scenic route through the wooded area west of Interstate 5.
