I was born and raised in Cedar Hills. My parents were one of the first to move to Cedar Hills in the 40’s. Some refer to Cedar Hills as similar to the Leave It To Beaver neighborhood. Cedar Hills had one of the first shopping centers dedicated for a subdivision; Cedar Hills Shopping Center, and we had our own airport, Bernard’s Airport. Back then everybody knew everybody. I remember mom belonged to the Cedar Hills Garden Club. And Foothill St was featured in the Oregonian during Christmas as every house had a white Christmas Tree in the front yard. Many of the streets had block parties, and many homeowners got together to plant flowering trees in the parking strips. There was never any crime. Walking to Ernie’s Store and towing your red wagon was super fund. You give the grocery list to a checker and they would fill the wagon; including s carton of Kool’s cigarettes. No money was needed because they would put it on mom’s account. Life was simple then.
Cedar Hills has been my home for eight years since I moved into my grandparents home in 2011. I chose to live here for the remote access to Mt.Hood for skiing and I have fallen in love with it with all of it's flaws. Beware, there is a severe of the lack of good sidewalks and foot traffic connections, the light rail stations are always inconvenient to access, and the traffic is growing worse with every passing year because the roads and highways are in desperate need of improvement to accommodate the growing population. It might be the prime example of west coast affluence and expensiveness, but the ocean is near and paradise is here.
The neighborhood itself is great, close to good schools and parks. There is a shopping center nearby with multiple grocery stores as well as options of fast food and sit-down restaurants. The HOA has a lot of issues but the neighborhood seems to have noticed and is voting for new representatives.
