Childs is a serene, green pocket on the south side of Lake Oswego, where tree-lined lanes and roomy lots create a relaxed, semi-country feel with city conveniences close by. Weekends often start on the trails at the Bryant Woods Nature Park or among the community gardens and historic barns at Luscher Farm, both just minutes away. Commuters appreciate straightforward access to Portland, Tualatin, and West Linn, plus quick connections through rolling Clackamas County.
Families value the strong academics of the Lake Oswego School District, with neighborhood routes to River Grove Elementary, Lakeridge Middle, and Lakeridge High. After school, bike-friendly streets and nearby parks make it easy to get outside, and when the weekend calls for water, Willamette River boat launches in West Linn are a short drive.
What makes Childs stand out is its balance: you can find homes with room to breathe, space for gardens or workshops, and quiet cul-de-sacs, yet you’re within minutes of everyday errands, local eateries along Boones Ferry Road, and seasonal events around the city. Sunrise jogs on soft trails, sunset views over pastureland, and starry, peaceful nights are part of daily life here.
