Bethany


Pushing up against the northwestern edge of Portland’s Urban Growth Boundary, the Bethany area provides a convenient commute to Nike, Intel, and Downtown Portland. It’s close to everything but still easy to get out into the open countryside.

The commercial hub of the area is the collection of shops, restaurants, and services centered at Bethany Village.  The variety of shops makes it easy to get most errands done just by strolling through this central marketplace. There are banks, dry cleaners, a bakery, coffee shops, a nail salon, hair salons, tanning salon, UPS outlet, card shop, cycle shop, and liquor store. 

If you need medical care, there are several clinics, dentists, a veterinarian, physical therapists and Walgreen’s pharmacy too. St. Vincent Hospital and medical offices are a short drive away.

Hungry? Bethany Village boasts nearly a dozen places sure to satisfy any preference. Or stop by QFC and stock up your own kitchen with a full selection of groceries, produce, wine and personal products. They also have a deli counter.

All Star Dance Academy provides dance education for students of all ages, or maybe yoga or taekwondo are more to your taste.

Other busy spots are the Bethany branch of the Cedar Mill Community Library and the many Bethany Churches that each sponsor events during the year. The Cedar Mill Safeway hosts the very popular Saturday Farmer’s Market during its season from May through October. Bethany and Sunset Athletic Clubs are handy places to keep in shape and connect with friends

Rock Creek, Jacob Wismer, and Springville Elementary Schools, Stoller Middle School, and Westview High School serve the community’s younger population. For the very young scholar, there is the Goddard School and several Montesorri schools. Private and parochial school options are also available for area students.

Bethany offers convenience and the ability to get away from the urban core. Come visit and take a closer look.
