Happy Valley

Hi! I am currently living in Arizona and I am looking to move to Oregon. I was originally looking for a house in Lake Oswego but I found a house I love in Happy Valley.

Can anyone tell me the good and bad about Happy Valley? Is the commute to Portland very bad (I want to work at OSHU).

Are there any other area you would suggest I look?

Thanks so much!!!

Hi! :welcome: Happy valley is a nice, quite, upper-middle class area, but the commute to OHSU is pretty long and there is a lot of traffic on the way. Your commute would probably be 45min each way, 30 on a day w/o traffic.

If you don't mind a more mature neighborhood (as opposed to a newer "burb") then I would suggest Sellwood, Hawthorne, and Mt Tabor. These neighborhoods are much closer to downtown. Lots of people bike and/or take public transport to work. Parking at OHSU is a nightmare! OHSU gives employees free trimet (public transport) passes upon hire.

Thank you so much for the advice. I will look into these communities. Currently I commute 60 miles one way (90 min) so I am really looking to not have the stress of another big commute. Thanks again!
