North Bend became an incorporated city in 1903.[4] HistoryBefore Europeans visited the Oregon coast, Native American tribes claimed the Coos Bay region as their homeland for thousands of years.[5] Members of the Coos, Lower Umpqua, Siuslaw and Coquille tribes lived, fished, hunted and gathered along Coos Bay and its estuaries, along rivers, and in meadows and forests.[5] Approximately 400 years ago, British and Spanish explorers first approached the South Coast.[5] In 1579, Sir Francis Drake is purported to have sought shelter for his ship, the Golden Hinde, around Cape Arago.[6][7] Trader and explorer Jedediah Smith was in the region seeking furs and the Hudson's Bay Company sent Alexander Roderick McLeod to search for an inland passage.[5] The 1852 stranding of the schooner Captain Lincoln on the North Spit and the survivors' encampment and rescue brought attention to gold prospectors who came to mine placer from area beaches.[5] In 1853, The Coos Bay Commercial Company arrived from the Rogue Valley and created routes for settlers.[5] Empire City was established and was the county seat of government until 1896.[5] Entrepreneurs were drawn to the area's ample natural resources, and sawmills and shipyards at Old Town North Bend and Empire City spurred economic development and attracted workers.[5] Rivers and sloughs provided a means to transport people, forest, agricultural and coal products, and towns provided hubs for inland transportation.[5] Some of the early industries in the area included timber harvesting, shipbuilding, farming, coal mining and salmon canning.[5] Prior to around 1915, The Coos region was largely isolated from the rest of Oregon due to difficulties in crossing the Coast Range and fording rivers. Instead, the Pacific Ocean was used to link people to other areas, including San Francisco. That was an easier two-day trip compared to traveling inland over rugged terrain.[5] In 1916, trains linked the region to other interior settlements and towns, increasing commercial trade and tourism[5] Significant urban growth occurred in the 1920s, and during the 1930s to 1950s, large-scale growth occurred.[5] Per the Oregon Bay Area Chamber of Commerce, during the 1930s to 1950s: Shipyards contracted with the U.S. Government to build minesweepers and rescue tugs for World War II defense purposes. Large national lumber companies set up operations and expanded significantly for the next two decades. Jetty improvements, commercial fishing and crabbing shaped the development of Charleston. The completion of the North Bend Bridge (now McCullough Memorial Bridge) in 1936 and the Roosevelt Highway significantly improved modern transportation connections and provided the final link in opening the Coos region to the outside world. The formerly remote district known as the Coos Bay country had come of age.[5] During the interregnum of despair between Franklin Roosevelt's election and his inauguration, the only bank in North Bend, the First National, was forced to temporarily close its doors, precipitating a cash-flow crisis for the City of North Bend. The city solved this problem by minting currency using myrtlewood discs printed on a newspaper press. These coins, in denominations from 25 cents to $10, were used to make payroll and the city promised to redeem them for cash as soon as it became available.[8] However, when the bank reopened and the city appealed for people to bring their myrtlewood money in to redeem it, many opted to keep their tokens as collector's items. After several appeals, the city gave up and announced that the tokens would remain legal tender in the city of North Bend in perpetuity. Until the 1960s, people occasionally did cash in their tokens, but the remaining pieces have become very valuable through scarcity and historical interest. Fewer than 10 full sets are believed to exist.[9] GeographyAccording to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of {{convert|5.09|sqmi|sqkm|2}}, of which {{convert|3.92|sqmi|sqkm|2}} is land and {{convert|1.17|sqmi|sqkm|2}} is water.[10] ClimateThe climate in North Bend and surrounds can be described as a very humid version of the Mediterranean climate or a dry-summer version of an oceanic climate. There is very little temperature variation throughout the year, with monthly means ranging from {{convert|46.4|F}} in December to {{convert|60.1|F}} in August, though on the rare occasions continental air masses penetrate they can be much more extreme, with the lowest on record being {{convert|13|F|C}} on December 21, 1990. Conversely, the record high is {{convert|100|F}}, set on June 24, 1925.[11] Cool breezes off the Pacific moderate the city's climate year round. Rain is abundant in winter, due to moist low pressure troughs from the Pacific Ocean. The city's annual rainfall is about {{convert|64.7|in|mm|0}}, but totals are less than an inch in July and August. Fog often blankets the coastal fringe in summer due to the temperature gradient between the cool Pacific Ocean and the warm inland, which serves to keep temperatures markedly cooler than in Eugene or even Seattle. Snow almost never falls in the city, but can be heavy in the adjacent Oregon Coast Range. Nearby Cape Blanco is one of the windiest places on Earth, with gusts of {{convert|125|mph}} or more achieved during severe winter storms. Annually, the city sees 25 days that fail to reach {{convert|50|F}} and just 12 days with a temperature of freezing or lower.[11] {{Weather box|location = North Bend, Oregon (1981–2010 normals) |single line = Y |Jan record high F = 74 |Feb record high F = 82 |Mar record high F = 88 |Apr record high F = 91 |May record high F = 94 |Jun record high F = 92 |Jul record high F = 98 |Aug record high F = 96 |Sep record high F = 98 |Oct record high F = 95 |Nov record high F = 78 |Dec record high F = 70 |year record high F= 98 |Jan high F = 53.4 |Feb high F = 54.6 |Mar high F = 55.6 |Apr high F = 57.2 |May high F = 60.7 |Jun high F = 63.6 |Jul high F = 66.3 |Aug high F = 67.2 |Sep high F = 66.7 |Oct high F = 62.7 |Nov high F = 56.7 |Dec high F = 52.9 |year high F= 59.8 |Jan low F = 40.4 |Feb low F = 40.5 |Mar low F = 41.7 |Apr low F = 43.3 |May low F = 47.2 |Jun low F = 50.7 |Jul low F = 52.9 |Aug low F = 53.0 |Sep low F = 50.2 |Oct low F = 46.1 |Nov low F = 43.0 |Dec low F = 39.9 |year low F= 45.7 |Jan record low F = 16 |Feb record low F = 14 |Mar record low F = 18 |Apr record low F = 27 |May record low F = 26 |Jun record low F = 33 |Jul record low F = 38 |Aug record low F = 32 |Sep record low F = 30 |Oct record low F = 26 |Nov record low F = 20 |Dec record low F = 13 |year record low F= 13 |precipitation colour=green |Jan precipitation inch = 10.19 |Feb precipitation inch = 7.53 |Mar precipitation inch = 7.83 |Apr precipitation inch = 5.17 |May precipitation inch = 3.39 |Jun precipitation inch = 1.95 |Jul precipitation inch = .49 |Aug precipitation inch = .62 |Sep precipitation inch = 1.57 |Oct precipitation inch = 4.73 |Nov precipitation inch = 10.13 |Dec precipitation inch = 11.13 |year precipitation inch= 64.73 |Jan precipitation days = 19.8 |Feb precipitation days = 17.3 |Mar precipitation days = 19.9 |Apr precipitation days = 17.0 |May precipitation days = 13.3 |Jun precipitation days = 10.2 |Jul precipitation days = 4.8 |Aug precipitation days = 4.9 |Sep precipitation days = 6.2 |Oct precipitation days = 12.4 |Nov precipitation days = 20.1 |Dec precipitation days = 19.8 |year precipitation days= 165.5 |unit precipitation days = 0.01 inch |source 1 = NOAA [12] |date=January 2013}} Demographics{{US Census population|1880= 84 |1910= 2078 |1920= 3268 |1930= 4012 |1940= 4602 |1950= 6099 |1960= 7512 |1970= 8553 |1980= 9779 |1990= 9614 |2000= 9544 |2010= 9695 |estyear=2016 |estimate=9789 |estref=[13] |footnote=source:[3][14][15] }} 2010 censusAs of the census of 2010, there were 9,695 people, 4,113 households, and 2,495 families residing in the city.
