An established Salem neighborhood steps from the city center
Grant is a small urban neighborhood within walking distance of Downtown Salem, full of vintage homes that are standing the test of time. “That’s where a lot of the smaller, older homes are. It’s been fun to watch some of those areas get improved,” says Denise Busch, a broker at Paramount Real Estate Services, who has worked in Salem for several years. “People are buying the older homes that were used as rentals. Some of the landlords are getting out of the rental business, so they’re selling them. People come in and fix them up and live in them or flip them so you can get a family in there. There are some really cute homes in some of these older neighborhoods.” The neighborhood is primarily residential but has easy access to nearby restaurants in Downtown Salem, plus a few businesses of its own.

A neighborly community with several local outreaches
Grant is a community-oriented neighborhood where locals constantly work to help their neighbors. Broadway Commons is a large multi-use building home to several local businesses, including the coffeehouse. Built in 2010 as a project by nearby Salem Alliance Church, the building has reservable meeting rooms, prayer rooms and is home to the Salem Free Clinic, which provides free healthcare to uninsured and underinsured people in the community. The Recovery Outreach Community Center has multiple small groups focused on helping people with all kinds of recovery. The groups do various activities, such as yoga, karaoke and art.
Established homes in a walkable urban neighborhood
Homes in Grant include modest Tudor cottages, bungalows and Craftsman houses. Most were built in the first half of the 20th century, including several from the 1900s to 1930s.

The houses are close together, and the median lot size in the neighborhood is around 6,000 square feet, just enough room for a small front and back yard.

Parks of all sizes in Grant and nearby
Grant Park is a small green space with a playground, picnic shelter and baseball field. The neighborhood is a short distance from Riverfront Park in Downtown Salem, which constantly has something happening. “They have a big taco festival where they fence it off, and then in the summer, they’ll bring in bands for music,” Busch says. “I think Salem focuses a lot of stuff through Riverfront Park.” On any given night, residents can find run clubs taking off from the park, families enjoying time on the playground or couples taking dance lessons at the amphitheater. There is a large open space where people gather to play games like Spikeball. The park is also home to Salem’s Riverfront Carousel, an indoor carousel featuring handcrafted horses, llamas and dragons. For more outdoor adventure, Silver Falls State Park is about 25 miles east of the neighborhood. The park is well-known for the Trail of Ten Falls, a 7-mile loop with towering waterfalls, including several that hikers can view from behind. The park also has picnic areas and campgrounds for an extended trip.
Residents and their dogs enjoy the sports fields at Grant Park.
