We often hear this question from our clients: “Where should I live in the Vancouver area if I want long-term value and a strong lifestyle fit?”

If you’re searching for homes for sale, our Evergreen Real Estate Partners team are real estate experts in Clark County and Southwest Washington, and we’re here to guide you through finding your ideal neighborhood. I’ll share the top five neighborhoods in the Greater Vancouver area that you should consider if you’re relocating to Southwest Washington.

Top 5 Neighborhoods in the Greater Vancouver Area

These five areas stand out for their growth potential, quality of life, and real estate opportunities. Whether you’re buying, selling, or investing, these communities have something to offer everyone.

1. Camas, Washington. This place is one of the top-rated neighborhoods, known for its excellent schools, walkability, and charming downtown area, which feels like something out of a Hallmark movie.

As a resident of Camas, I appreciate the beautiful walking trails by the lakes, the delightful boutique shops, and the small-town atmosphere, all while being close to Portland and downtown Vancouver.

2. Felida, Washington. This upscale, residential neighborhood just northwest of Vancouver is perfect for people who like quiet, community-focused living with easy city access.

Known for its well-kept homes, scenic walking trails, and top-rated schools, Felida is especially popular with families and professionals. You’ll find parks, waterfront paths along the Columbia River, and convenient access to shopping and dining, all while maintaining a peaceful, suburban feel.

3. Fisher’s Landing, Washington. Located on the east side of Vancouver near Camas, it is perfect for those who prioritize convenience. Everything you could possibly need, shops, restaurants, and grocery stores, is within a ten-minute drive.

For commuters, Fishers Landing offers easy access to freeways, which makes getting to PDX or downtown Vancouver a breeze. There’s a nice balance between suburban comfort and urban perks.

4. Salmon Creek, Washington. This location is a popular spot for people relocating to Clark County. Just north of Vancouver, it offers top-rated schools, easy I-5 and I-205 access, and a mix of newer homes and established neighborhoods.

Locals love the Salmon Creek Trail and Klineline Pond for outdoor recreation, and the area has everything from big-box stores to medical facilities nearby. It’s a great blend of convenience, nature, and community.

5. Ridgefield, Washington. It is one of the fastest-growing areas with significant new development. Recently, a Costco and an In-N-Out Burger were added, and there are many more developments planned for the future.

If you’re looking to join a community poised for substantial growth, Ridgefield is the place to be. Savvy buyers are already paying attention—this neighborhood is no longer just “up and coming”; it’s actively thriving right now.
