Its not the Columbia River separating West and East Portland, its the WILLAMETTE.
I had to comment because this is a gem of a video!! Thank you for making it. I was born and raised in Orange County CA, road-tripped up to Oregon during covid and fell in love. I’ll be moving to the Portland area next month and am looking to purchase some homesteading land in PNW next year. I can’t wait to watch the rest of your videos!
Same here! Born and raised OC. The market here is out of hand and it seems Oregon has more opportunities as of now as far as real estate is concerned.
Why?.... Unless you are a double-mask wearing, virtue signaling, woke joke type of person, you see the s hole that Portland is.
Insane, I lived in Beaverton through childhood and now Huntington Beach. The one takeaway is the older mid-century home neighborhoods. Also, the amount of green parks in Huntington as what I had in Beaverton
Looking to move here from Detroit. Seeking walkable/bike friendly neighborhoods, public transportation, and access to nature. Appreciate the videos.
Lived in the PDX area since 75 and your assessment is pretty darn good imho.But you left out the fact that the entire area has nightmarish traffic.Portland has always had its share of homelessness,but it used to be concentrated just off the Burnside bridge area.Now there are homeless camps EVERYWHERE in the city.The outskirts and suburbs around Portland don’t really tolerate the campers,so anyone thinking about moving here,I would recommend visiting first.
Sounds like all the major cities are encountering the homeless population boom. It got really bad here in LA over the past years but surrounding suburbs are having a hard time combatting the overflow of LA.
That’s because he’s a transplant and wishes he was an OG Oregonian
Imagine those delicious conversations from family and friends when you announce your move to Portland. Oh my!
I moved from Las Vegas Nevada to Milwaukie, Oregon in 2012. I lived in Milwaukie for 11 years. My partner passed away and I decided to make a change and I moved out to happy Valley. I was not happy and happy Valley is so far away from anything and you have to drive to every store anything you wanna go to After two years living there, I moved back to Milwaukie and I can be at any store. I wanna be at or any pub or restaurant in just a few minutes. I moved into the brand new HenleyPlace apartment homes, which are absolutely beautiful and I am totally happy to be back in Milwaukie where I can walk anywhere I wanna go in just a few minutes. living in Milwaukie, you can find homes anywhere from seven or $800,000 to over millions of dollars on the river. It’s a beautiful area to discover in Oregon and now that I’ve been here 14 years I will never move anywhere else. Lake Oswego and West linn are wonderful but it is so hard to get anywhere from that area. Anywhere in the southwest side of the river is almost impossible to get anywhere to none of the roads go through. They don’t connect. It’s all constantly changing streets and going different directions and once you go to the west side, you can’t come back to the east side the same way. It’s craziness to get anywhere in the west side on the east side all the streets are north south, east and west.
Good video. I grew up in Laurelhurst, but have lived in Happy Valley for the last 30 years. Both are great places to live; I miss the old Craftsman style homes of Laurelhurst and the shopping on Hawthorne, but Happy Valley is great for being close to Portland without the crime and crowds.
I grew up on Bull Mountain. There was a cattle grazing field and blackberries on 150th but now it’s all new builds.
Yup, right in that urban growth boundary!
You called the north-south river flowing through downtown the Columbia: it's the Willamette ( Will-AM- it).. that might confuse newbies. I'm sure you know the Columbia is much bigger & east-west, unlike the Willamette..
Good catch! I love fishing the Columbia Channel right out of downtown Porltand and when I look at the map, thats all I can think about LOL!!!
Currently in Atlanta. Definitely prefer the west side. I haven't decided between the north (e.g. near the Japanese Garden) or south (perhaps a house in the hills or by Tyron). I'd love a midcentury modern house (like a Rummer) where i can walk out to forest trails and have a short commute to coffee shops, good gyms, and Powell's Books.
There is definitely some killer mid-century homes near the trails. We also have a couple Rummer communities. Shoot us a note and we can point you in the right direction info@realagentnow.com
Currently in Oceanside, Ca. We have been planning a move to the suburb cities of Portland. No job lined up yet. Oregon city, Vancouver, mcminnville, Hillsboro. Don't know yet. Why? The outdoor activities. That's it. Thanks for years of information of your team.
absolutely! glad you like them!
Indeed! Those are some great areas :)
I would suggest McMinnville or lake Oswego or West linn
You called it the 5 quadrant but you forgot the north Portland area so there are addresses that are sw, nw, s, n, ne, se
That smartboard makes your map videos outstanding!
Thank you!
It's a great video. Useful information! Thanks a lot!
I love the city of Portland! Great video!
This was incredibly informative
Born and raised in Pdx. Took my family and my business and left in 2020. All three of my kids and their family’s left as well. Crime is sky high. The streets are dirty and not safe. Extremely taxing on personal as well as businesses. Only a fool would move here. It breaks my heart what has been done to my beautiful city.
Ok
Lol where did you move to? Colorado or ID I’m guessing
@@Vinsanity503 Eastern Oregon
I moved here with my family in early 2021. Granted, we can afford to live in a nice neighborhood, but I do have to work in a rough part of downtown. It is already vastly better, and it makes me sad that people who moved out at the worst time won't experience that full picture.
I may be moving to Beaverton to live with some family and study engineering!
I'm looking into moving to Portland, OR for a year from Southern California. Your explanation of the t-map sectioning is most helpful. Thank you.
SoCal here and thinking about doing the same. Have you moved there yet? How'd it go?
Ok, but when will we get more police and fewer tents inside portland......?
Moving from Spokane, WA. Appreciate the information!
I still have 2 years left of college but I will be moving from rural Indiana. I am considering living either downtown or in the pearl district
The Pearl District or NW 21st/23rd is the place to be (near downtown)...Downtown proper is not.
Moving from Dallas Texas, looking to move into the central Portland or Beaverton area. Potentially Hillsboro.
oh wow ok! big change but that will be nice! let us know how we can help reach out any time info@realagentnow.com
I'm moving from Houston TX this summer. I'm tired of the heat, flatness, poor transit and infastrucutre, and just the size of texas cities. It will be nice living in a smaller city with mountains, greenery, good transit , good infastrucuter and city planning etc...
Slightly weighted toward housing inventory availability.
I’ve been living in Portland for 8 years or 7 I love it here I recommend living in Laurelhurst it’s way more calm than the other neighborhoods, I also the downtown apartments huts it’s way more loud.
I personally like it being loud.
We love Laurelhurst
It’s super expensive to live in the city of Portland. The reason there are so many people living in their cars is because nobody can afford an apartment on a $15-20/hr salary. I was fortunate to buy my home in Estacada before prices jumped but it’s getting busy out here too. For me it’s worth the drive. I’m surrounded by forest but it’s definitely not as convenient.
Lol when I first moved here it took me a couple weeks to figure out the grid system. I still need a GPS most of the time to get around and I’ve been here 10 years lol. If you’re looking to work at OHSU just know you are going to have to pay for parking or you can take Trimet.
You got in early!
We are hoping to move to Portland in 6 -12 months. Would love a classic gem that needs love and lots of polish.
lots of those haha just gotta find the area that fits you best! reach out so we can start planning!!
Hope you really love the smell of sh!t in the morning, evening, and pretty much whenever you set foot outside. I no longer bother to leave the house except to work..
@@andretokayuk8100 maybe it’s time for you to move. Sorry for your nose.
@@angelle1211 No sh!t!!!
@@angelle1211 the entire city needs polishing, bring your own fentanyl.
15:06 I can see my apartment in Milwaukie!
I drive 75+’ trucks all over Portland for work. I’ve been in all that traffic lol. I know this place pretty well, mostly on the west side. Iived here 13 years.
Helpful video even as someone already living in Portland metro! I'm out in the Hillsboro suburbs, and looking to move into Portland proper since I want a more urban lifestyle. North, Northeast, and Southeast (but remaining west of 205) is the general area I've narrowed it down to I think.
A while back I was considering near downtown Beaverton, but like you say there's not much home availability there.
Thank you for the great video! Very informative.
I got a job with OHSU, moving in January 2024 from Los Angeles. Looking into Beaverton area.
I’m moving from Knoxville, TN, next year after I graduate with my master’s. My job will be located in Tualatin, so I’m looking for an apartment located somewhere near busy streets with good nightlife, but also close enough to my job.
Dude, we don’t put “the” before we say the highway. Bet you use an umbrella when it rains.
Planning on moving there this upcoming June.
Looking and waiting.
You and me both!
Central East side Portland beyond 205 is very liveable if the west side suburbs are too sleepy for you, or inner SE is too expensive for you. The David Douglas School District is fantastic. People familiar with the East Bay Area in CA will find themselves at home here. More diversity than west side and closer to all the cool stuff in inner SE. The federal government just approved a $20 million upgrade to 122nd street to make it safer for cyclists and pedestrians. It's only a matter of time before the various car dealerships are rezoned into mixed-use housing and small business. It's a little rough, but Portland's crime rate is lower than Oakland's and the houses are 50% the cost, larger and in better condition.
Also, the houses in inner SE might be cuter, but the spaces are much smaller AND my friends in inner SE get their cars broken into far more often. The trade off is that cool stuff is more walkable there, but I'm hopeful that more redevelopment is done here to create a stronger sense of a neighborhood.
With Portland recently changing their city charter to have their council members district-oriented instead of at-large, there will be more pressure for elected officials to make major infrastructure changes to improve this community.
That said, there are still neighborhoods to avoid. Avoid anywhere near a bottle drop, areas around major streets. Look towards areas near schools, and meet with the neighbors around a house you might want to get the full scoop.
We are happy with Lents. We bought a house cheap ten years ago. We get downtown easily and closer to Mt. Hood for skiing. And the lots are bigger than when you get closer to downtown. Powell Butte is a plus, a big park in the city.
Looking from Montreal!
Heyyy. We’ve definitely helped some clients from up there!! What area in Portland are you looking into?
@@LivinginPortlandOregon not sure yet! very early in the process. Loved how it was broken down, very easy to navigate.
i was more into ridgefield or orchards if a new home, but ill keep loking around for northeast now
Moving from Albuquerque New Mexico to Portland for work and relocation
You missed North Portland
Stay tuned. NoPo and SoPo dropping tomorrow
If you make under $60k a year you can't comfortably afford to live here and if you make over $120k your paying a marginal state and local income tax of over 13.5% which is higher than california new york or any other tax area in america paired with the 2nd highest property tax rate in nation, in a city with homes significantly above the national average. With that said instead move to Vancouver, WA or a Seattle suburb if you like the pnw, in regard to seattle though more expensive, wages are substantially more and you can actually keep most of your income well living in a first class city If you can find a job in Vancouver, WA there is absolutely no need to move to the desolate south known as portland, you pay 0% income tax, with wages that are the exact same, and have the ability to drive 5-10 mins to shopping center at the border to avoid almost all sales tax, oh and your paying about half the property tax in Vancouver too, generally better schools, absolutely only a fraction of the crime, and best of all you are allowed to call yourself a Washingtonian which warrants a bit more respect than saying your from its metaphorical slacker little brother oregon
I left Portland 2 months ago after 9 years. Sick and tired of drug addicts, crime, vandalism, shootings and homicides.
Don’t do it people.
Yup, certain areas are bad…
It's better than 75% of the US in all of those stats. Almost every city in the US sucks. As someone from Houston Texas it seems like paradise when I visit.
Chicago
Great content! Do you have one of these videos for Vancouver Camas areas?
Lots of videos for Camas and Vancouver on the Channel!
I want a lot of rain 🌧️
Portland is a hell hole to escape! Not move to! I escaped a year and a half ago and am more thankful with every update I get.
Motivational reminders are the key to a happy life 🔑
tMoving from Tennessee!!! Working at OHSU. This has been super helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
I haven’t been there since 1987 and there used to be a light rail that went to Vancouver, Washington from downtown Portland is that still there? Just wondering it’s been so long that I’ve been over there
MAX is still going strong!
@@LivinginPortlandOregon omg, you don't even know???
Phoenix
I-26??? I mean Portland hasn't built a new freeway in 40 years... 26 being upgraded to an Interstate would be amazing... ;)
26 has been expanded a lot! I remember when they finally expanded the lanes to 185th and then to Corn Pass.... It use to be a nightmare. I think its the most traveled highways in Oregon
Cedar Mill
Is the place to be!
Tampa, FL
I'm assuming the Portsmith area is nothing but automatic gunfire 24/7 since nobody really ever covers that. For those of us that can only afford a $300,000 home or $350,000 home, do you know of anybody making videos about those neighborhoods? Because those of us who are going to be living in them would like to know. Thank you.
Portsmoth is near Addys house. There isn't automatic fun fire LOL! There is tons of great areas in North Portland that we cover car Portsmouth.
Hows Mt Tubor Park? Do they allow the camping of the illegal nature? I want to take my Grandkids from Camas to that awesome park.
Mt Tabor is super cool and pretty safe. Day camping isn’t allowed anymore in the city.
Sacramento
You're from California, aren't you? "The 84." "The 205." "The 217." We don't talk like that in Portland. That's the way people speak in Los Angeles. It's not I-26, it's US-26. It's not The 84. It's I-84. It's I-205. It's 217 (or maybe Oregon 217).
Also, there are now SIX "quadrants. Yes, South is the newest, but you totally forgot about North. North is everything from Interstate Ave to the Willamette River.
And I'm just going to stop here. You have just so, so many mistakes. You really don't know Portland.
Portland does not put their money into roads. Traffic is the worst at all times.
If you are considering moving to Portland, the first thing to do, I would suggest, is s complete mental exam.
It’s required 🤔
who the hell would actually want to move to portland...
Lots of people!
Idiots! That's who!
I don't think many people wanna move to Portland
Youd be surprised
The Woke crowd will love it.
Saw that....Net migration of -2,000 people.
Lots of people love the surrounding areas.
I dunno, when we were looking last year we were fighting over houses, kept getting outbid before we found something.
It’s sickening every time another swathe of farmland gets scrapped for more development. Build up, not out.
No farms…no food.
Almost every house built was on farm land at one point and time. Why are people ok with the house they live in but not others?
Handsome
Shows the Hawthorne bridge and calls it the I5 . It's rt.26 not I 26. Calls the Willamette the Columbia 😅 Forgot north Portland 😮. NE Portland has the highest crime rate. Paper mill in camas, it smells like burning hair. A Portland joke, " I met a girl, she told me to kiss her where it stinks, so i took her to Camas.
If you move to Hillsboro, learn Spanish
Clean up the homeless tent city with shit on the sidewalks
Amazing video bro I just learned a lot
This is a joke, right? the city was at its best 10 years ago. Now its a California traffic, down town is a sheet hole where bums harase you for a buck, biking is a death wish or walking home with out a bike, and homeless camps keep grooving. YES PEOPLE MOVE IN YOU WILL BE HAPPY HERE.
Def not California traffic. California has 12 lanes of traffic, we only have 6 😂
It's really not that bad at all. Portland just had it better than most places for a very long time, now they are catching up to the rest of the country, but still not nearly as bad. As someone from Houston TX, Portland seemed very nice and not bad at all. I never felt not safe and it's beautiful overall. If someone is moving from Boise they might not be happy. But PDX is better than most Midwest, southern and Cali cities by a long stretch.
Don't ever discount Portland Oregon 💞
Indeed!
Useless junky state!
