Clackamas County Reviews
Rating 4.22 out of 5 45 reviews
I live in Clackamas (the city) as well as the county. Clackamas has fairly nice people, it has this really neat big city trying to be small vibes. My biggest complaint is how terrible people drive. I have seen more people run red lights since living here than I have in my whole life. Overall though, Clackamas is great if you're looking for something that's got the beauty of nature never too far from your backdoor, a quick ride to the Clackamas Town Center, a whole wide variety of delicious (and local) food joints, good beer, or just a beautiful day on the river. Clackamas is the place you want to be if you want to avoid the actual big city (Portland), but also don't want to be in the country.
Clackamas county has a great supportive network of people. The community involvement is stellar, and when there is a safety issue, people come together to support and uplift each other. This is a great place to live and call home. It's beautiful and welcoming.
Well kept. Relatively peaceful. North Clackamas has great parks and lots of shopping and dining options. There isn't ample crime, however just north of the county line it starts to get a little dicey.
