Northeast Neighbors is a fairly large suburban sector of Salem, providing folks in the capital city with a clean, quiet home environment right on the edge of the biggest employment centers in town. The Oregon State Capitol, Salem Health Hospital, and Willamette University are both located just outside the southwest corner of the neighborhood, making it a highly convenient spot for students, faculty, medical professionals, and government employees to find houses or apartments.
Large public greenspaces like Englewood Park and Barrick Field give residents terrific common areas to stretch their legs and enjoy some fresh air, and small neighborhood cafes and taverns are common on the south side. The close proximity to downtown also makes it easy to take advantage of Salem’s shopping, dining, and cultural attractions at the drop of a hat.
