I'm moving to Portland, OR. What neighborhoods are young and fun?

Question

I need an apartment that is pet-friendly, hopefully near a park, and not a complex if possible. I will be out there around September 15th.

Answer 1

Such a fun area! I would recommend looking into the Beaverton area, or if you like the trendy crowd, find something near the pearl district?

Answer 2

I live in Portland! That's awesome! Well I go to college there so I live in a dorm. But if you are just one person you could live in the new high rises into the city (coming from Lake Oswego) they are really awesome. If you have a family some of the older neighborhoods with the older houses are really fun. But in my opinion the best place to live is in the really nice apartments right in the heart of the city, most of them are pet friendly. They are new and really retro and modern and they're are older ones that are great too.

GOOD LUCK!

Answer 3

Where EVER you land there, you'll love Portland. Its SO
diverse. Check out The Goodfoot, Roots Organic Brewery, OMSI
a nd if you hear of Adair Village playing anywhere, go hear them!!
THEY ARE AWESOME!!@@
Also if you love to watch people, like the bustle of the "city"
go downtown to PAZZO, order roasted garlic and brie.............................OH YUM!Then walk around Johns Landing.
Up on Burnside (not the safest) theres good thrift shops, army
surplus etc.Cross the river and have a drink at CochinaCochina.
HAVE A GREAT LIFE IN PTOWN!!!!

Answer 4

Most of the young fun apartments are in the Pearl District. They are spendy, so be perpared.

There is also the Hawthorne district. It's young and fun, but earthier.

Answer 5

A lot of the younger crowd live near NW 23rd Street, which is uptown.

Answer 6

I recommend Martin Luther King Blvd.It is very safe and clean.
