East Hillsboro offers an appealing mix of innovation, open space, and easy connectivity. On the east side of Hillsboro, residents enjoy direct light-rail access via the MAX Blue Line for straightforward commutes to Portland and neighboring Beaverton. The walkable streets of Orenco Station bring together local cafés, patios, and a seasonal farmers market, while nearby Orenco Woods Nature Park provides winding trails, wildlife viewing, and striking creek crossings. Outdoor time also comes easy at 53rd Avenue Community Park and the Hidden Creek Community Center, with sports fields, splash areas, and year-round programs.
Families appreciate strong school options through the Hillsboro School District, including Liberty High School, Century High School, and well-regarded elementary choices like Orenco and Quatama. The area is a favorite for Silicon Forest professionals thanks to short trips to major employers, yet evenings feel relaxed on quiet residential streets shaded by mature trees. Set within Washington County, housing spans contemporary townhomes near transit, thoughtfully planned subdivisions, and classic ranch homes on roomy lots—offering something for first-time buyers, growing households, and right-sizers alike.
