White City relocation
Hey everyone! My husband and I are looking to relocate to the White City area for his work, and I’m trying to get a feel for the area more. I’m a stay at home mom to our 1 year old boy so we’re mostly focused on things like safe neighborhoods, family friendly stuff to do, and just overall quality of life. We love the outdoors so I know Oregon won’t disappoint in that department, but we’d ideally like somewhere more secluded-ish or even just quiet neighborhoods.
If anyone has opinions or advice, I’d really appreciate it:
What areas are good for young families who want a quieter, more secluded feel?
Any places you’d avoid or wouldn’t recommend?
How’s cost of living compared to nearby areas?
Is it pretty realistic to find work in healthcare/service/admin type jobs?
What’s there to do outdoors with little kids?
Anything you wish you knew before moving there?
We’re coming from a smaller coastal town, so we’re used to a slower pace already, just looking for a good balance of space, safety, and opportunity.
Thanks so much in advance!!🥰
ETA: Our rent budget would be around $2k max. We have a dog as well so dog friendly area (and property management) recommendations are welcomed as well!
