Collage of downtown Portland showing it's unique personaltiyThe Portland Neighborhood Guide is divided into several different parts- you can read about each area at the beginning of each section and then go on to the individual neighborhoods and suburbs from there. Portland is divided into East and West by the Willamette River and Burnside Ave divides East and West Portland. The Columbia River is just North of Portland and divides the States of Oregon to the South and Washington to the North. The Portland Neighborhood Guide is one of the first things I did when I started selling Real Estate. I knew that if people wanted to find the perfect home to buy, they needed to understand the Neighborhoods.

I think Portland has more diversity than any other city I have been to, as far as the way it is laid out, the type of houses there are, and the lifestyle people live! Our Portland Neighborhood Guide has detailed descriptions, maps, photos, and links to parks, bike trails, festivals, shops, public transportation, schools, history, and each has a hand made collage in which I have tried to give a glimpse of the personality and feel of each neighborhood that expresses what I feel makes it stand out from the others.   You can get an overview of each area by reading the description of each main section of Portland. Then if you want to learn more about each little neighborhood, go to the individual neighborhoods.  Have fun! And if you would like a free personal tour of Portland neighborhoods, or would like to look at some houses with someone who would love to share their insight with you, just give us a call or email us and we can set it up! We specialize in helping people get to know Portland better!

My husband and I are looking into relocating to Portland at the end of next year (2020). We have been several times and make a point to tour different neighborhoods. But when it comes to making a choice on where to go, a guide is needed! We can't wait to discover more.
