McKenzie Stadium hosts football fans in Burton Evergreen
Hot lights beam across cheering football fans, bundled up at McKenzie Stadium on chilly Friday nights in the Burton Evergreen neighborhood. As Vancouver’s largest football stadium, McKenzie Stadium seats close to 6,000 fans of its home football teams from Evergreen, Heritage, Mountain View and Union high schools. Though varsity players and their classmates across the city may call the stadium “home,” it’s Evergreen High School that backs up to the stadium, next to feeder schools Cascade Middle and Burton Elementary.
Besides proximity to schools, residents of Burton Evergreen also enjoy spacious lots and the freedom to do whatever they like with them. “It’s an established neighborhood, which has a lot of homes that sit on larger lots, so I feel like the buyers who come in want to have a little more space, a bigger yard, room to park RVs or boats,” says Max Lopatin, a realtor with Parker Brennan Real Estate, LLC. “There are no homeowner’s associations, so you are a little more flexible with what you can do,” he says.
Burton Evergreen is home to McKenzie Stadium, a popular football field.

Homes on larger lots with smaller prices
The winding streets of Burton Evergreen are filled with homes that peek over freshly trimmed hedges onto sidewalks that start and stop sporadically, running past colorful potted flowers and basketball hoops—evidence of the school children that live nearby. Most homes in the neighborhood cost somewhere between $430,000 and $530,000, featuring three or four bedrooms. Symmetrical vinyl builds with two stories, tuck-under garages and small porches constructed in the early 1990s are common within this price range. Ranch-style homes synonymous with the ‘70s are also prevalent, though recent, modern builds are becoming more and more frequent. On the upper end of the price range, custom builds on larger lots—some with three levels—sell between $600,000 and $720,000.
For the most part, though, homes in Burton Evergreen sell for less than those in the larger Portland area; the average home price of the neighborhood is about $100,000 less than the average price of the greater metro area. “Anywhere else you go for a larger lot, you will be looking at a higher price point and a tighter community with a homeowners association,” Lopatin says.

Private dining at Petra House Mediterranean Restaurant
Residents of Burton Evergreen live within a mile and a half of the shopping center on 162nd Avenue, where they can pick up their dry cleaning or their prescription at Walgreens.

First Place Park and Pacific Community Park
Though there may not be traditional parks within Burton Evergreen’s boundaries, there are plenty of green spaces in the area. First Place Park offers three and a half acres of open space just across 18th Street. The park’s highlights include a grove of flowering, fragrant cherry trees and a playground that the city unveiled in 2019. The new structure features stained plastic attachments that cast kaleidoscopic shadows on the mulch and across the playset. Less than 10 minutes away by car, residents will find even more green space and a baseball diamond at Pacific Community Park. Walking trails weave through eight acres of well-maintained land, past an off-leash dog park and natural gardens with cheerful sunflowers. Across from the park’s playground, skaters and BMX riders gather at the skate park.
Picnic tables sit next to the playground area.
