Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Yes, the name St. Helens is referring to that St. Helens, as in Mt. St. Helens. The volcano is about a two-hour drive from the center of town, meaning this bedroom community is within striking distance of almost any outdoor pursuit one can imagine. If you like the idea of small-town life (and lower rents!) in the wild and wonderful Pacific Northwest but still want to be close to all the advantages of living in the big city, St. Helens may be the place for you.
To call it a sleepy town is no stretch -- the City of St. Helens, Oregon, has a page on its website dedicated to providing advice to residents who may encounter one of the coyotes that wander into town from time to time. Located on the banks of the Columbia River, St. Helens has a population of about 13,000 and is the largest town in Columbia County. It's within a two-hour drive of recreational opportunities on the Oregon Coast, Mt. Hood, and the Columbia River Gorge. It's also just 30-or-so miles from the urban centers of Longview and Vancouver, Washington, and Portland, Oregon, meaning St. Helens residents are afforded all the benefits of living in a small town without feeling isolated from the rest of the world.
