  • Tracy
    "The neighborhood is much louder than initially thought when we moved in 4 years ago. The train horn is very loud at all hours of the day, and the playground attracts homeless and suspicious behavior at night (sometimes criminal). The saving grace is the walkability and the great neighbors. "

    "I've lived in this neighborhood 9 years. Do you want to get poisoning from all the industrial facilities on Columbia blvd, do you want to hear the train screaming at all hours? Do you want a home that's been supposedly remodeled? It's all just paint to make things look good. Don't do it, seriously take my advice. It's a terrible neighborhood , the taxes are insane and only getting worse. The neighborhood is not friendly at all and your going to get stuck in an unaffordable mortgage without escape . I managed to sell my home here and am only still in Kenton until I can get out of oregon. Washington here i come"
