"Love this neighborhood!!"
We just moved into this neighborhood and we love it!! Have moved out of central SE due to increased rent and bought a lovely house with a huge yard! Very private, quiet, dead end street where you feel as though you are not really in the city! We were a little unsure of the neighborhood just because of what we heard from people, but the neighbors are extremely family friendly and kids play out in the streets without worry! I couldn't be more pleased with this neighborhood, love the diversity and coming from a more hipster area of Portland, we have so welcomed and more neighborly with the people in this area then our previous neighborhood! It is a gay friendly area too, we have felt very welcomed by all our neighbors! Convience to getting into the city without using the highways and interstates is also a big plus of this neighborhood! And the housing prices are half the cost of houses literally 5 minutes down the road! We highly recommend this area to anyone!
