==Politics==
Curry County, like most of southwestern Oregon, is a Republican-led county, although in part due to a more liberal lean in the city of [[Port Orford, Oregon|Port Orford]], it does not give so small a proportion of its vote to Democrats as Eastern Oregon does. No Democratic presidential candidate has obtained an absolute majority in Curry County since [[Lyndon Johnson]]'s 1964 landslide, and the county has been carried by Democrats for Presidents twice since, with only one occurrence being after the "[[Reagan Revolution]]". This occurred when [[Bill Clinton]] obtained a 32-vote plurality over [[George H. W. Bush]] in a three-way contest with billionaire businessman [[Ross Perot]] in 1992. Even so, the Republican lean in Curry County has shown a few signs of waning in recent years. In four of the last six presidential elections, Democrats were able to exceed 40 percent of the county’s votes.

In the [[United States House of Representatives]], Curry County is located in [[Oregon's 4th congressional district]], which also includes the more left-leaning [[Eugene, Oregon|Eugene]] metropolitan area and is currently represented by Democrat [[Val Hoyle]], serving since January 2023. In the [[Oregon State Senate]], Curry County is located in the 1st Senate District, represented by Republican [[David Brock Smith]]. In the [[Oregon House of Representatives]], it is located in the 1st District, represented by Republican and former Curry County Commissioner [[Court Boice]].

==Economy==
[[File:MACK ARCH AT CROOKS POINT - NARA - 520171.jpg|thumb|[[Mack Arch Cove]] in 1938]]
After discovery of gold and other precious metals along the beaches and rivers of Curry County in the mid-19th century, [[White Americans|white]] settlements developed along the coast. Traveling mainly by water or by coast-hugging land routes, residents remained relatively isolated from the rest of Oregon until the 20th century. As mining declined in the region, the economy became more dependent on farming, livestock grazing, forest products such as [[Chamaecyparis lawsoniana|Port Orford cedar]] (also known as Lawson's cypress) and [[Umbellularia|myrtlewood]], and tourism. Blueberries and nursery plants are among the important farm products, and most of the [[Lilium longiflorum|Easter lilies]] grown in the United States come from Curry County.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Oregon Historic County Records Guide: Curry County |url=https://sos.oregon.gov/archives/records/county/Pages/curry-history.aspx |access-date=May 18, 2013 |publisher=Oregon Secretary of State}}</ref>
