Gateway to the Gorge
Deep in Portland’s western outskirts, Troutdale is a small city located along the confluence of the Sandy and Columbia Rivers. Nicknamed the “Gateway to the Gorge,” this compact community is known for its bucolic atmosphere and proximity to outdoor destinations like Multnomah Falls, the Columbia River Gorge and numerous state parks. “A lot of people have moved out to Troutdale over the years – they want the safety and the feel-good aspect of living there,” says Michelle Carter Smith, a local broker with RE/MAX Equity Group who has years of experience selling homes in the area. “Troutdale has a very, very strong sense of community. People look out for each other here, and they care about each other. There’s heavy community involvement for the schools, for the arts, for everything.” According to the U.S. Census Bureau, this city is home to a little more than 16,000 residents. Troutdale’s eastern side backs up to vast outdoor recreation areas and rural land, while its western edge shares a border with the city of Wood Village. Residents can take Interstate 84 to downtown Portland, approximately 17 miles to the west.
Residents of the Beaver Creek neighborhood can enjoy Multnomah Falls, which is a quick fifteen minute drive away.

Troutdale and its surroundings are an outdoor playground
There’s no denying the city’s pronounced outdoor appeal. “Troutdale is one of the most beautiful places in the world,” Smith says. “I’m an avid outdoors person, and I trained for a marathon that ran through the Columbia River Gorge… which is to say, I don’t just drive my car around and say that the area looks pretty; I’ve been fully immersed in it and it’s mind-boggling. It’s just beautiful.” Within Troutdale’s city limits is an extensive park system comprising several pedestrian trails, recreational facilities and more than a dozen public parks, many of which are in residential neighborhoods. Many of these outdoor spots are also located along the Sandy River, including the popular 6-acre Glenn Otto Community Park. In addition to recreational amenities within town, Troutdale residents also have access to multiple nearby state parks and outdoor destinations. Fourteen miles away is the Multnomah Falls, one of the country’s tallest waterfalls and a major tourist destination in the Pacific Northwest. Surrounding the falls is the Columbia River Gorge, a canyon stretching more than 80 miles. “A lot of people want to move to Troutdale because The Gorge becomes their playground,” Smith says. “You’re also close to Mount Hood, where people can hike in the summer and ski in the winter.”
Glenn Otto Community Park offers great hiking paths with views of the Sandy River.
The Sandy River runs along the east side of the Sandee Palisades neighborhood.

Troutdale has a variety of home styles
Troutdale’s median housing cost hovers around $510,000, and listings spend an average of 35 days on the market before being sold. “Housing in Troutdale isn’t expensive, relatively speaking,” Smith says. “Over the 19 years I’ve been doing this, it doesn’t really matter what happens to the housing market; people still want to move to Troutdale. Whenever I get a listing in Troutdale, I know it’s going to sell.” Single-family homes showcase an array of architectural styles; potential homebuyers can find everything from older Craftsman bungalows and ranch-style dwellings to New Traditionals and rows of tract homes. Troutdale’s winding residential streets are also lined with towering trees and assorted greenery, which gives the city a more rural atmosphere.
Split-level and ranch-style homes from the 1970s make up the architecture of the neighborhood.
New traditional homes from the early 2000s can go for 430 to 530 thousand in Town Center.

Downtown Troutdale, also known as the Town Center neighborhood, is the heart of the city’s art scene and has several galleries and creative studios. Community events hosted here include First Friday celebrations in the summertime and holiday festivities like the Winter Tree Lighting ceremony. Down the road from downtown Troutdale are the Columbia Gorge Outlets, a massive shopping center full of apparel stores and national retailers. For supermarkets, chain eateries and big box stores, residents can head to commercial plazas like Troutdale Commons, the Cherry Park Market Center or the Troutdale Market shopping mall.
