What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Nob Hill Portland

It butts up against a large green area -- Forest Park. There are many restaurants of all types of ethnicity and ranges of affordability. We like to go to the museums nearby and the cafes with friends.

The old man lives a comfortable life, like to go to Wal-Mart, like to climb mountains with his family.

One its quiet here. Two i love all the trees. last all the homes are detached from each other. Resterants are fun to go to.

My neighborhood is very unique because I get to play basketball. I like to support local businesses since it is always good to always do that. And I like to go to restaurants with my family and friends.

It's a part of the city that has the most history. There's a lot of unique and trendy businesses and eateries.

That I am able to live in the Privacy that I prefer.Transportation is very close by along with multiple stores in walking distance

Getting to Know Nob Hill, OR

The trendy Nob Hill, formerly Alphabet District, offers singles, families and professionals an urban lifestyle with plenty of shopping and dining options. NW 23rd Avenue is the area's main thoroughfare. Its narrow roads feature Victorian houses converted into hyper-local shops and restaurants. Locals tend to people watch while sipping a latte at a sidewalk cafe. This dense tight-knit community has a large number of apartments situated among luxury condos and Victorian homes. Residents love it for its walkability and the dog-friendly atmosphere. But, parks and green spaces are hard to come by. However, the Oregon Zoo is close, and the MAX and streetcar are easily accessible. And unless you have good parking karma, finding a spot is virtually impossible.
