Just blocks from downtown, Northwest Gresham offers a variety of housing options in a location that’s almost too convenient. Its town houses, Ranch-style houses, and split-level houses run past two parks, two shopping centers, and two stops on a light rail line that gets you to downtown Portland in an hour.

Most of the neighborhood’s houses were built in the 1960s and 1970s on 6,000 to 8,000-square-foot lots with space for a large driveway, mature trees, bushes, and aBut small, fenced-in backyard where your dogs can run around. The neighborhood also has denser pockets of apartment complexes, condominium complexes and town houses where space between neighbors is limited, if it exists at all. These townhouses fetch $300,000 to $400,000, while the detached houses cost $450,000 to $600,000.

The eight-acre Bella Vista Park sits at the center of this neighborhood and offers a small playground for children, plenty of trees for shade, and a large field where the Northwest Neighborhood Association has hosted concerts. And Main City Park, the crown jewel of Gresham’s parks department, butts up against the Northwest neighborhood’s southeast corner. Its walking trails, athletic fields, playgrounds, and Japanese garden guarantee any visitor will enjoy playing outside.

Northwest Gresham is also home to the open-air Gresham Station shopping center. Located at the neighborhood’s northwest corner, this shopping center features a variety of department stores, a couple of furniture stores, and a Natural Grocers grocery store. It’s also a couple of blocks from the Gresham City Hall and Civic Center, where you’ll find offices for just about every city agency you need. But while Gresham Station is an excellent location for shops and government services, it lacks restaurants that aren’t part of a national chain. Luckily Northwest Gresham is only a few blocks from the Historic Downtown Gresham Business District – where you’ll find the Asian Thai Bistro and Sugar Cubed Bakery – so those looking for something a little different won’t have to travel too far.

And five schools serve parts of Northwest Gresham. Students in the southern half of the neighborhood will attend Hall Elementary School and Dexter McCarty Middle School. In contrast, those in its southern half will attend North Gresham Elementary School and Clear Creek Middle School. Every student will complete their K-12 education at Gresham High School, less than a mile from Northwest Gresham.

Everything Gresham has to offer – from city services to shopping malls – is within easy reach of the city’s Northwest neighborhood. That makes it a great place to live and an even better place to call home.
