Look at Vancouver Heights for hometown style living close to the city

You can find a small-town feel in the city when you search for homes for sale in Vancouver, WA. The Heights neighborhood is a small enclave in the south-central part of town, convenient to highways and amenities but far from the noise of downtown Portland and Vancouver.

This neighborhood also offers some of the best deals on the Vancouver, WA real estate market. Typical three-bedroom homes are in the mid-$100,000s range, while both fixer-uppers, older homes and luxury properties are also available.

Vancouver Heights is on the edge of a ridge overlooking the river, so many properties with the right placement have excellent views. But, keep in mind that properties which boast panoramic landscapes may cost more than the standard area homes. If you want to see a spectacular vista when you wake up in the morning without paying western Portland neighborhood prices, take a look at the MLS listings in Vancouver, WA.

The local neighborhood association dubs the Heights a "home town within a big city" thanks to its ample green spaces and close-knit community, and notes residents' pride in being named the "Neighborhood of the 150th" at the city's recent sesquicentennial celebration.
