Stafford is an unincorporated community, classified as a hamlet, in Clackamas County, Oregon, United States. It is a census-designated place (CDP), with a population of 1,577 as of the 2010 census.[1] The community covers approximately {{convert|15.7|km2|acre|abbr=on}}[1] located in a rough triangle south of Lake Oswego, east of Tualatin, and west of West Linn. Students in the area attend the schools of the West Linn-Wilsonville School District.

History

Stafford was named by George A. Steel, a prominent Portland pioneer, after his hometown of Stafford, Ohio, in the 1860s.[2] The Stafford School opened in the community in 1892, and the following year the Eastside Electric Railway owned by Steel reached the area.[2] In 1895, the Wanker family moves to the area and buys land where they build a store and tavern, an area later to become Wankers Corner.[2]

Parts of the area were proposed to be added to the Portland area's urban growth boundary in 1995.[2] Eventually {{convert|830|acre|km2}} were added, but later removed after a court fight that ended in 2001 at the Oregon Court of Appeals.[2] In November 2006, the residents of Stafford voted 344-30 to form a hamlet, the second Oregon community to do so (after Beavercreek).[3]
