Hillside Homes for Rent

Hillside, located in northwest Portland, is a neighborhood known for its diverse architectural styles and scenic hilly terrain. The area features a mix of single-family homes and some condos, with styles ranging from Colonial Revival to Mediterranean, many built in the early 20th century, and others from midcentury onwards. While front yard space is limited due to the hilly streets, some properties offer backyard space. Hillside is primarily residential, with children attending highly rated schools such as Chapman Elementary, West Sylvan Middle, and Lincoln High. Nature lovers will appreciate Macleay Park, a nearly 140-acre wooded area with trails like the Wildwood Trail and the Cumberland Trail. Indoor recreation is available at the Hillside Community Center, which offers a rock climbing wall, basketball court, and various youth programs. For shopping and dining, residents frequent the Uptown Shopping Center, home to Phil's Meat Market & Delicatessen and Kizuki Ramen & Izakaya, with a Fred Meyer nearby for groceries. Local attractions include Providence Park for Portland Timbers soccer games and the historic Pittock Mansion. Hillside is well-connected by the TriMet bus system and is just a few miles from downtown Portland, with easy access to Interstate 405 and Interstate 5. Despite its secluded feel, Hillside is known for its community events, including a Family Fun Night, Fourth of July picnic, and Halloween Festival.
