Richmond. Centered on SE Division and Clinton streets on the east side of Portland, this neighborhood hums from morning coffee to late-night cinema. Dinner plans come easy along Division’s restaurant row, while cult-classic screenings at the century-old Clinton Street Theater set a retro tone for date night. Tree-lined blocks showcase Craftsman-era homes alongside thoughtful infill, and community voice runs strong through the Richmond Neighborhood Association.
Weekends spill into green space at Sewallcrest Park, where lawns, courts, and a dog off-leash area invite impromptu meetups. Getting around is effortless: the Clinton Street Neighborhood Greenway links riders across town via Portland’s Neighborhood Greenways, and frequent service on TriMet FX2-Division streamlines commutes. Proximity to Sunnyside, Hosford-Abernethy, and Creston-Kenilworth expands your culinary and shopping orbit within minutes.
Families appreciate strong public school options, including the renowned Japanese Dual Language program at Richmond Elementary School, with feeder pathways to Hosford Middle School and Cleveland High School. Between school gardens, playground meetups, and neighborhood block parties, Richmond offers both lively streets and easygoing corners to recharge.
Whether you’re upsizing, downsizing, or searching for a first home, Richmond’s blend of transit access, parks, and indie culture makes settling in feel natural.
