Understand
Pioneers settled Monmouth in 1853 and quickly established a college in the town. Western Oregon University, or WOU (which has held six other names), still exists, giving Monmouth a unique spirit for a town of its small size. Monmouth was known for being the last dry town in Oregon until 2002, when alcohol was legalized by referendum. Since then, Monmouth business has thrived with the opening of many new restaurants and stores who rely on alcohol (mostly beer) sales to survive.
