  • Living in Portland
    Section III: Living in Portland “The law must be stable, but it must not stand still.” — Roscoe Pound Looking for Housing? Where to Look Portland is divided into four main areas: Northwest (NW), Southwest (SW), Northeast (NE), and Southeast (SE), though North Portland is sometimes referred to as the “fifth quadrant.” Burnside Street divides the northern and southern ends of Portland, while the Willamette (pronounced Will‐am‐it) River separates east from west. Lewis & Clark Law School is in SW Portland, meaning that it is west of the Willamette River and south of Burnside. If you are looking for a place to live that is close to school and easily accessible via public transportation or bicycle, your best bet is to look in SW or SE Portland. Most students live within three miles of the school. SW SW Portland’s most popular neighborhoods include Multnomah Village, Garden Home, Hillsdale and John’s Landing. Rental listings in these areas usually reference Burlingame, Terwilliger Boulevard or Barbur Boulevard. These neighborhoods are generally quiet, family‐ friendly areas with casual eateries and a few bars or brew pubs, though John’s Landing is a bit more lively. The law school is also close to Lake Oswego and Tigard, which are suburbs of Portland and within a short distance to the school by Boones Ferry Road. Both are quiet areas that tend to attract families. Lake Oswego is known for its excellent school system. You will most likely need a car to live out here; many areas lack sidewalks and public transit. However, one of the bus lines with stops by the school goes through Lake Oswego’s Mountain Park neighborhood.

Devaluation in the area was the direct result of discriminatory real estate policies and mid-twentieth century urban renewal projects. Starting in the 1990s, the City of Portland passed revitalization measures to increase private investment in the neighborhood.
