South Hillsboro Home for Rent

South Hillsboro, nestled between two prominent parks in the West Portland suburbs, balances natural beauty with modern conveniences. The neighborhood showcases a mix of historic farmhouses, compact fifties-era bungalows, and contemporary saltbox and craftsman homes. The eastern side features gently curving streets and homes adjacent to wooded parks, while the northeast has gridlike streets with identical houses and shaded sidewalks. Jackson Bottom Wetlands, located on the east side, spans 635 acres with 4.5 miles of trails and attracts over 200 bird species annually. To the west, Rood Bridge Park offers manicured greens and forest trails along the Tualatin River, ideal for beginner paddlers. For those seeking curated outdoor activities, the 27-hole Meriwether National Golf Club is a popular choice. The Shute Park Aquatic Center and Hillsboro Shute Park Library, which hosts regular children's events, are also notable amenities. The Tualatin Valley Highway runs along the neighborhood's north side, providing 20 miles of shopping centers, including the Sunset Esplanade for groceries and daily needs. Dining options include the highly rated Tacontento taco truck and Hale’s Restaurant and Lounge. Wineries south of the neighborhood offer quiet spots to enjoy local pinot with scenic views. The highway also connects residents to downtown Hillsboro's nightlife and entertainment, with central Beaverton just 20 minutes away and downtown Portland a 30-minute drive or an hour by public transit. Portland International Airport is about 45 minutes away. Hillsboro High School, known as “Hilhi,” offers a range of STEM-focused clubs, a popular robotics team, and an International Baccalaureate program. South Hillsboro combines nature, shopping, and a strong community spirit, making it a well-rounded Portland suburb.
