LO Named One of 10 Best Towns for Families

Family Circle Maganzine has named Lake Oswego one of the Nation’s 10 best towns for families. This came as no surprise to me. It’s why I moved here. I think it’s why many people move here. This is simply a great place to raise kids.

Here is what Family Circle had to say:

Lake Oswego, Oregon

Population: 36,396
Median Income: $83,397
Median Home Price: $361,317
Households with Kids: 30%
Student/Teacher Ratio: 22:1
Great Schools Rating: 10

Beth Taylor, 53, rarely travels far from this scenic Portland suburb for family vacations. She and husband Mitch, a 52-year-old tech firm executive, along with kids Grant, 18, and Margaret, 9, have hiked in the Cascades, skied at Mount Hood and floated down the McKenzie River—all just a two- or three-hour drive away. The Taylors can also get their nature fix by walking out the front door, since their home borders a 645-acre forest known as Tryon Creek State Park. “When you’re on the trails, it’s easy to forget that you live anywhere near a city,” says Beth. But what she appreciates most about Lake Oswego is its caring citizens. To make up for school budget cuts, parents raised more than $2 million last year to hire teachers and keep classes small. And when Grant was hurt during a football game last October, two neighborhood doctors met Beth and Mitch in the ER for moral support and stayed with them through the night; when Grant returned home, the family’s voicemail and e-mail boxes were filled with hundreds of good wishes and their fridge had been stocked with food. “Not unusual at all,” says Beth. “People here go all out to support each other.”

Good Deeds: Every year students at Lake Oswego High spend one of their days off from school doing volunteer work, from cleaning the local library to mucking out stalls at a horse stable for disabled youth. In April 700 kids stepped up; next year’s goal is for all 1,200 to take part.

Lake Grove Village

Dining Al Fresco
Flowers Flowers Flowers
Zupan's at Lake Grove Village
Lake Grove Shopping Center has morphed into Lake Grove Village. Located on the West side of town, this shopping center used to be home to Wizer’s Market and a small strip mall of shops. After being closed for renovation for about a year, it has re-opened with new stores and restaurants.

The main store is Zupan’s. I gotta say, it’s pretty amazing. We have lots of nice markets in LO: 2 Albertson’s, 2 Safeway’s, Lamb’s Thriftway, Whole Foods and New Seasons. But this Zupan’s makes all of the others seem rather low-brow. I’d describe it as being mostly a huge deli with gorgeous produce, meets, and beverages. It is an ideal place to purchase take-out on those nights you don’t feel like cooking. The most stunning department is the flower department, which is so large that it occupies an outdoor patio as well as it’s own storefront. The final top off is a out door lounge with a large sofa, big chairs, and tables for dining. It is covered and has heat lamps, so except fo the deep of winter, it will be enjoyable pretty much year around.

Seriously, have you ever seen a market that has a sofa?

Two other tenants in the new “Village” are La Provence and Jefe. La Provence is a great French bakery/bistro that used to be located North of this location. Jefe is up-scale Mexican: very fresh and very homemade. Both have outdoor seating that is covered.

It is really a nice addition to the commercial district in Lake Grove and I highly recommend that you check it out, if you haven’t done so already.

Market Activity June 4-10, 2012

Last week there were 21 new listings, 27 homes became pending sales, and 13 closed sales. The thing that caught my eye doing this activity report is that of the 27 pending sales, 13 sold in 10 days or less.

I’ve also got to share a recent experience. Working with buyers who had seen everything on the market in their price range in Lake Oswego, we were actively pursuing the new listings. A house, at a good price, came on the market in a high-end subdivision. We saw it the first day it was listed in the RMLS. My clients really liked the house and we spent about 45 minutes looking it over. When we openned the door to leave, there was a line in the driveway of Realtors and buyers. Seriously, a line was in the driveway. It’s fair to say that the house sold that day, to my clients. It was a bidding war. I haven’t seen anything like that in, well, 5 years.
