Harbor (Tolowa: chit [5]) is an unincorporated community in Curry County, Oregon, United States.

For statistical purposes, the United States Census Bureau has defined Harbor as a census-designated place (CDP).

[7] Meanwhile, a new post office named Harbor was established at the mouth of the Chetco River in 1894.

[7] The name of the office may have originated from the Chetco Harbor Land and Townsite Company.

Mild, dry summers with average rainfall in July and August of less than 1 inch (25 mm) per month are usual.

This is due mostly to its situation at the foot of the Klamath Mountains, from which winds compress and warm the air flowing onto Harbor.

In the lowlands, heavy fog is common in the summer while the coastal hills are generally sunny and cool.

[citation needed] As of the census[4] of 2000, there were 2,622 people, 1,333 households, and 798 families residing in the CDP.
