The town of Oakridge is Redmont's lumber town, founded by Zab on 20 November 2022. The current Mayor of Oakridge is Yeet Boy. The town features a woodsy and forested theme, extending across the entirety of the town. The town's location at 4170 74 1017 (town hall) makes Oakridge directly north of Redmont’s capital, Reveille. Oakridge’s name was originally Oakridge Bay due to the fact that the town is situated next to a bay though the name was later shortened to simply Oakridge.

Population

Oakridge has a rough population of 188 people (Players with Oakridge set as their residency) as of January 2023.

History

Early History

Oakridge was opened to the public on November 20th, 2020. The town’s popularity quickly grew, and on January 8th, 2021, Oakridge completed the town's first expansion. The expansion consisted of rentable stalls, a police station, a pharmacy, and a pier. A major change occured to the town on April 8th, 2021 making all drugs legal. This brought waves of new players and business owners to Oakridge due to the fact how selling drugs no longer required citizens to have a black market stall. Zab’s leadership came to an end in June as he stepped down from his position as mayor. After Zab stepped down, Oakridge held its first mayoral election with voting closing on the 25th of June, 2021. 1950Minecrafter came out on top, and was elected as Oakridge mayor.

Transition to Reveille

Similar to other towns, the transition to Reveille damaged Oakridge's activity. Oakridge was almost entirely rebuilt when transferred to the new map, and went through several major structural changes in the process. Due to the large number of players leaving DemocracyCraft due to the transition, Oakridge had trouble rebuilding the town. After struggles upon struggles, Oakridge managed to transition to the new map.
