Cumerende

Cumerende is a small, unincorporated community located in rural Grant County, Oregon, United States. Situated in the high desert region of Eastern Oregon, it lies in the vicinity of the John Day River. The area is characterized by its arid landscape, rolling hills, and sparse vegetation, typical of the Owyhee Uplands. Historically, the region's economy has been tied to ranching and agriculture, with limited commercial development.

Access to Cumerende is primarily via county roads, connecting it to larger towns and highways in the surrounding areas. The nearest significant population centers offering a range of services are typically several hours drive away. Due to its remote location, Cumerende experiences a low population density and a quiet, rural lifestyle. Like many remote communities in the American West, its inhabitants often rely on self-sufficiency and a strong sense of local community.

The natural environment around Cumerende offers opportunities for outdoor recreation, including hiking, hunting, and fishing, particularly in the nearby John Day River system, which is known for its scenic beauty and fossil beds. The climate is characterized by hot, dry summers and cold winters with occasional snowfall. Information regarding specific historical events or notable landmarks directly within Cumerende itself is limited, reflecting its status as a very small, primarily residential and agricultural outpost.
