Portland’s South Waterfront is an up-and-coming neighborhood overlooking the Willamette River just moments from Downtown. Boasting high rise buildings and Oregon Health & Science University, the South Waterfront is a thriving riverfront destination for renters with proximity to other intellectual hubs such as Portland State University. Enjoy the perk of having a tramway, the South Waterfront Tram Terminal, for a quick ride above downtown with panoramic city views, along with the convenient proximity to Interstate 5 for commuting purposes.
South Waterfront is in the heart of Portland, so it’s great for renters looking to live in the inner city. Ross Island Bridge, a car-free bridge, is a beautiful site to see after dusk, and there are numerous community parks in this urban area. Elizabeth Caruthers Park is a beautiful green space offering bocce courts, a splash pad, local art, and scenic pathways.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
