Neighborhood Profiles
As a part of the Portland Engagement Project, the City Of Portland partnered with Portland State University’s Population research to create profiles of every neighborhood in the City Limits. This was done for the following reasons:
- Help the City and our community partners improve outreach;
- Set programmatic priorities unique to each neighborhood;
- Help Portlanders in need; and
- Sharpen our understanding of the unique changes and issues occurring within each neighborhood.
