Green spaces connected by level bike paths
The Cal Young neighborhood is central to convenience; just across the Willamette River from downtown Eugene, it has several big-box retail stores, two malls and more than five grocery stores scattered along several major thoroughfares. Besides options for every shopping need, Cal Young contains a park every mile or so throughout the neighborhood, many connected by bike lanes and paths on an easily navigable terrain. “The area is really known for bike riding, walking and hiking,” says Jeremy Starr, a real estate broker with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices. “It’s flat, and a lot of people prefer the flatter ground to the hills on the southeast and southwest sides of the city.”
