The Silicon Forest

Known colloquially as the Silicon Forest, Brookwood is a quiet, primarily residential neighborhood developed mainly in the second half of the 20th century through the growing tech industry presence. Despite the rapid industrial growth, Brookwood retains a friendly, rural feel. “It’s got charm,” says resident, Realtor and owner of NextHome Next Chapter Realty Connection with 14 years in the industry, Christina Saribay. “It’s really community-based. When I think of Brookwood, I think of that cozy farm community that has evolved with tech but still has that country feel, that closeness.” Flanked on all sides by shopping, dining and entertainment opportunities, Brookwood offers all the comforts of a suburban neighborhood just a stone's throw from Hillsboro’s shopping district.

Cozy residences hidden in the trees

Home styles here include ’70s- and ’80s-era ranches and Minimal Traditional homes, alongside a variety of contemporary and New Traditional two-story homes built in the ’90s and 2000s. A quiet, cozy atmosphere with streets that wind around flowering trees and evergreens is characteristic of the Pacific Northwest landscape. Yards are compact, featuring bordering shrubbery, rosebushes and ornamental gardens with groundcover landscaping. Though there is plenty of room for street parking, most residences have driveways and attached garages. Homes with 1,500 square feet or less tend to sell for $400,000- $600,000, with the average sale price falling around $500,000. Houses that boast 2,000 square feet or more range from $500,000- $800,000, with the average price falling around $650,000.

Ebenezer Main Plaza and beyond

Local shops and restaurants within the neighborhood are at Ebenezer Main Plaza, home to the Filipino snack and bubble tea shop BoBaLicious and the Good Taste Noodle House. “Good Taste Noodle House is a mom-and-pop shop with the best Chinese food ever,” says Saribay. “They’re always busy and always friendly. They recognize you when you come in.” Residents seeking more options only need to head a few blocks south to reach big-box stores such as Target along Tualatin Valley Highway, or they can go north and grab some food at one of the many highly rated Asian restaurants at Airport Center, as well as pick up groceries at the nearby Albertsons. Downtown Hillsboro offers a more personalized shopping experience, including a variety of local boutiques and restaurants alongside the Walters Cultural Arts Center and the Hillsboro Artists’ Regional Theatre.

the Helvetia Lavender Festival

With summer comes the Helvetia Lavender Festival, where locals can view 60 different varietals as they wander through the gardens. Visitors can pick lavender bundles, enjoy the view beneath the shade of the pavilion or peruse the many lavender products and gifts available. The festival is held every year at Helvetia Lavender Farm and Christmas Tree Farm, just 10 miles north of the neighborhood.

A prominent tech presence

The neighborhood is particularly popular with tech workers: Intel is the largest employer in Hillsboro, and Brookwood is within 4 miles of each of the city’s four Intel campuses.
