Gresham is a great place to live, especially East Gresham. I would argue though that downtown isn’t full of box stores. It’s a historic downtown with small mom and pop spots. I also don’t see trash anywhere.

It’s true Ridgefield is really boring nothing to do and glad to get out of here.

It takes time to make a city great and Ridgefield has gotten way better already so your wrong

Lived in Washougal WA for a couple years back when I was in high school, I think it has the best mixture of Rural/Urban access you just turn right or left on HWY14 depending on what you want. Not too far from Vancouver WA and Portland OR and just an hour away from entering the gorgeous Coumbia River Gorge.

Due to elected governance it is slowly turning into portland.

ALLLL I see is MEXICANS

Most of this is talking about southeast Portland, not Gresham. The 205 is not in or really even near Gresham and most of the homeless population is west of 181st. The points about not moving to Gresham if you work in Beaverton are valid, but that feels obvious not to work and live on opposite sides of a city.

Take Max into town

um... lack of enforcement is not a con bro shhhhhh

Move to Hillsborough and say goodbye to filthy disgusting Portland

I lived in Sherwood many years and loved it. I actually have stagers coming this week and will be listing a condo soon ❤

You should do a sequel called the 1000 cons of living in Portland.

Cant do anything about homelessness, these homeless have felonies, fried brains from years of meth, no work skills, they run out of welfare money so they steal other peoples stuff for drugs. Everytime a homeless person gets a section 8 studio they bur it down of make the neighbors a living hell. Years of being on the streets makes them feral. As long as government completely useless.

Sherwood is a clean little town. I do not live there, but I run errands there. I like it there. It is quaint.

Buses and Max are great and easily accessible. You obviously did no research on the bus lines.

Highway 26 tunnel is not in Hillsboro silly. Nike and Intel are big companies. Don't drive by them during rush hour silly. Also, there are other routes to Portland. I too do not like going through the tunnel on 26 (although, Portland / Beaverton own that). A lot of your complaints are about how hard it is to get to Portland from Hillsboro. Try living in Portland silly.

If you don't have a car, forget it. And if you do have a car, get used to mind numbing traffic jams.

I live in Portland and ride the bus and Max train all the time. The trains and busses smell so bad. Almost every time I ride public transit, it smells like poop because so many smelly people ride.

The people? The Sketchy People? I'll be watchin' all of ya to sketch. You could be next! Love ya, Portland!

Washougal is overpopulated now, traffic has increased too much within 5-6 years.

Thank you!!! You covered the information on the homeless situation and safety. I lived in Oregon and now in Tennessee but I want to move back. I’m considering Vancouver. I appreciate this post so much. I’m not buying a home. Thanks again!! I also lived in Ca. I was born and raised there. 😊

#1 The locals. Look, it's my Childhood home. When I was growing up, I had to deal with insufferable people who felt that Jackson Elementary School which is a local School to Hillsboro literally belonged exclusively to the People from the Jackson School subdivision and made sure you knew how unwelcome you were at every turn. I got a Front row Seat to Class warfare living there as a Property Dispute was ongoing over whether people who lived on the wrong side of Jackson School road should go to Jackson or be bussed up the Road to one of the other Schools and over zoning laws about who should be allowed to go to Jackson. They Felt entitled to it belonging to them alone and tried like the Dickens to push to get kids like me who grew up on the Other side of the Road bussed up to more run down schools. People around here suck, They Engaged In Flagrant Class warfare. Also, their Demonic Spawn Children engaged in a massive bullying and did they scold them for it even once? No. Boys will be boys, they figured. I got picked on a lot by the Local Demon spawn (their kids) growing up. Like You want to know why Hillsboro Sucked in the 1990s? The people living there is why.

How is the weather in Sherwood?

I grew up in a suburb on the outskirts of the big city. Much safer, much better community and quiet. I have a car and don’t mind driving where I need to go. 15 min to get to the grocery store is not a big deal to me since I only go maybe once a week, realistically it’s more like 12min. The houses are also much bigger and cheaper

Oh Debrah!

There is so much more homeless in literally every other city in America! I’ve lived in 6 other major cities and that is quite frankly a nonissue here in Portland

I want to move to Vancouver I wanted to know if there is public transportation like bus trains ..and universities in Vancouver or universities close to Vancouver. Which side of town do you recommend

It is a very peaceful, beautiful place to live. Once you live here, you learn back ways to get to freeways. But, there are beautiful backroads with gorgeous scenery.

I moved to Vancouver a year and a half ago. It is pretty much devoid of culture but has a good Saturday market. Things shut down early. There's only a few good bars and a few breweries. Regular bars are rough and attract a fighting crowd. It's a suburban strip mall life and the downtown is very small. The new waterfront offers a bit of upscale dining.

Uh…did you miss they closed down a Starbucks in Downtown St. Johns on N Lombard several years ago, across from that little St. Johns square? So…no.

I graduated from Tigard HS a couple moons ago. Sherwood is not Portland but I realize Portland has sprawled out that direction. Certainly not the same as when I was out causing trouble. There used to be a comfortable separation from “Portland”. I’m not sure if they still enjoy that separation from, “keep it weird” town?

What is the homeless situation in/ near Sherwood?

Have you done a video on West Linn yet?

We love living in Sherwood! Thank you, both, for helping us move to paradise!

I disagree with your comments about Ridgefield schools. Over crowded and multiple levies to build new schools for booming population are not passing. Kids classes in gyms etc, Extreme folks voting against needed schools. Only move to Ridgefield if you are a senior.

I've live here for 43 years and I do not see anything wrong until after 2020. The Rose City is long gone and have been destroy to the bottom of the hell. Any of you wanted to move in to Oregon, you maybe made a wrong choice. Think it over and make a right choice for your life and for the future of your children.

Google "Cascadia Subdcutiob Zone Earthquake" Any structure along the Columbia River in Clark County will liquify and collapse in the major earthquake, due anyday. We highly advise, stay away from living near major rivers and the ocean in WA and OR.

I 💚 Gresham Oregon 🍀

That ice sound is annoying as heck. Couldn’t watch the video after 15 seconds.

Portland is a dump.

nooooooooo

Is there a gated community in Vancouver? What is considered the most posh/walkable area, comparable to the marina district tin san Francisco or the pearl in Portland OREGONE
