Cedar Mill grows, in population and business

Cedar Mill’s convenient location attracts thousands of Oregonians with its proximity to the corporate headquarters of Nike and Intel, which named its final version of the Pentium 4 processor after the community. The growth that Cedar Mill has experienced within the last 20 years is significant — the population of the Portland suburb increased by 40% since the turn of the century. With the population boom came a new elementary school and middle school, as well as plenty of new businesses. “They have been working hard on developing the area,” says Victoria Marchese, a senior broker with Eleete Real Estate and a Cedar Mill Business Association sponsor. “They are adding quite a few new places, like taphouses and coffee shops — all of the things that people really like.”

Insomnia Coffee and Wildwood Taphouse open

As the population of Cedar Mill grows, so does the number of things to do. The community recently welcomed the arrival of Insomnia Coffee Co, a popular coffee shop throughout the Portland area. Residents can head to the café for their regular hot or iced order and a bagel before heading across the street to the Cedar Mill Library, one of the largest nonprofit organizations in the state. Wildwood Taphouse, another local business with a location in Cedar Mill, makes for a great evening hang-out. Patrons enjoy one of 20 regularly rotating tapped beers in the cheerful space, which features a playful mural of a bear strumming a banjo. For groceries, residents head to Market of Choice or the Safeway in the Sunset Mall shopping center. For more local produce, they shop at the Cedar Mill Farmers Market in the Safeway parking lot every Saturday from May through October. “It’s packed every weekend,” Marchese says. “They have the fresh flowers, the fruits and veggies, sometimes there are people playing music there.”

Cedar Mill Falls and the Mossuments

The community enjoys access to the extensive Tualatin Parks and Recreation District, including the Jordan Woods Natural Area. Granite sculptures called “Mossuments,” inscribed with taxonomic language for various species of moss, gradually become covered with a soft, velvety green layer throughout the woods’ 18 acres. The Jackie Husen Park at the mouth of the forest features a playground and a swing set. Another popular hiking destination is Cedar Mill Falls, accessible via the Cedar Mill Creek Greenway. The Americans with Disabilities Act-accessible trail leads to a boardwalk with a view of the area’s only waterfall. However, Marchese’s favorite way to view the rushing waterfalls is via the shorter Timberland Falls Trail.

The Sunset Athletic Club has been a community staple since the ‘70s, with more recent additions to accommodate Cedar Mill’s growing population. The recreation center enjoys local support, despite the arrival of competitors, offering a rock wall, indoor and outdoor pools, as well as indoor and outdoor tennis courts in return.

International Baccalaureate programs at Beaverton School District

Cedar Mill is within the desirable Beaverton School District, with its youngest students attending Terra Linda Elementary School. Receiving an A from Niche, the school has an average class size of 19.5, as compared to the state-wide average of 22 students per class. After attending Tumwater Middle School — a candidate for the International Baccalaureate Middle Years program — local teenagers enroll at A-rated Sunset High School, which offers an International Baccalaureate Diploma program. Besides a strong academic program, Sunset High also has a range of historically successful athletic teams, with more than 40 combined state titles over the past 50 years. Every year, Sunset High gym students return to Terra Linda Elementary to teach children yoga poses and flows as part of their final project.
