Hollywood Homes for Sale

Hollywood, a historic neighborhood in East Portland, is named after the landmark Hollywood Theater at its center. The area is divided by Sandy Boulevard, with retail and commercial spaces along the thoroughfare and residential blocks surrounding it. Homebuyers will find a mix of well-updated bungalows, Craftsman-style homes, American Foursquare homes, and newer townhouses and condominiums. The neighborhood is known for its strong sense of community, with residents actively participating in Neighborhood Watch activities. Hollywood features street murals and hosts the Hollywood Farmers Market every Saturday, offering over 50 vendors, live music, and family activities. Despite some challenges like homelessness, the neighborhood's real estate prices remain relatively accessible.
