The population was 3,238 at the [[2020 United States census|2020 census]]. ==History== Dundee was named after [[Dundee]], Scotland, the birthplace of [[William Reid (Scottish businessman)|William Reid]]. Reid came to Oregon in 1874 to establish the [[Oregonian Railway]], and made several extensions to the railroad in the western [[Willamette Valley]]. The first post office in the area, established in 1881, was called Ekins. The Ekins post office was closed in 1885, and in 1887 a new office opened and was named "Dundee Junction." The name was chosen in anticipation of plans to build a bridge across the [[Willamette River]] for the railroad, which would have called for a junction at Dundee between the west railroad and the new east railroad. The bridge was never built, however, and the post office was renamed "Dundee" in 1897.<ref>{{cite book | last = McArthur | first = Lewis A. | author-link = Lewis A. McArthur |author2=Lewis L.
