Harvey the Rabbit gazes at travelers to Aloha
Harvey the Rabbit, a statue standing 36 feet tall, welcomes drivers to Aloha with a smile, though it’s often interpreted as a jeer. Local lore states that reciprocating Harvey’s wave will prevent the misfortune of a flat tire in Aloha, a residential city of roughly 55,000, between Hillsboro and Beaverton, pronounced locally as “ah-LOW-ah.” Though it’s often considered part of Beaverton, residents recognize the difference. “We sometimes do block parties and barbecues with our neighbors, and we all depend on each other, which is nice,” says Lilia Piper, a sales associate with Guardian Games who grew up in Aloha after her family relocated from Beaverton. “There’s a difference. When we moved to Aloha, my parents bought a house. We got to know our neighbors and they were super welcoming. We would do a lot of community stuff, and we lived by a park, so there were always kids and families there.”
Harvey the Rabbit is a local landmark in Aloha.

Breeding ground for poisonous rough-skinned newts
Many of the green spaces in Aloha belong to the Tualatin Hills Parks and Recreation District, a well-regarded system in the region. The Tualatin Hills Nature Park is east of Aloha, with more than 220 acres speckled with ponds, creeks, marshes and forests. The preserve’s interpretive center educates parkgoers on the wildlife that inhabits it, like rough-skinned newts, who migrate to breeding ponds during the warmer months and can produce enough poison to kill 20 humans. Mountain View Champions Park has the state’s first synthetic sports field accessible for athletes with physical and developmental disabilities.

Lower real estate prices between Beaverton and Hillsboro
Most of Aloha is residential, with suburban streetscapes composed of homes from the late 20th and early 21st centuries. Styles include midcentury split-level, ranch-style homes, new traditionals from the 1980s through the 2000s, as well as some more modern new constructions. Cottages from the early 1900s with original Craftsman charm peek out between more common builds.
One of the main draws to the city is the price of its real estate; though it benefits from its proximity to both Hillsboro and Beaverton, Aloha’s real estate is significantly less expensive than either neighboring city. The median price of a single-family home in the city is roughly $520,000, while the median single-family home sales price in Hillsboro is about $585,000. It’s even higher in Beaverton, with a median of $605,000. Comparatively low prices in Aloha may account for a more competitive market: homes in the city spend an average of 31 days on the market, while the nationwide average is 13 days longer.
