Zip code 97236 covers outer southeast Portland’s Powellhurst‑Gilbert and Pleasant Valley, blending suburban calm with big green spaces. Expect the temperate Northwest rhythm—misty, mild winters and dry, sunny summers—and easy access to Powell Butte Nature Park and the Springwater Corridor for hiking and biking with sweeping nature views. The area’s culinary scene is local and multicultural: food carts, pho shops, taquerias, and bakeries line SE Powell and 122nd, with Grocery Outlet and Asian markets for staples, indie coffee houses, and small gyms and fitness studios tucked into neighborhood shopping centers. Weekends skew outdoorsy and low‑key—dog walks on the butte, backyard gardening, and relaxed gatherings at casual taprooms—making it both family‑ and pet‑friendly with a strong community vibe. Per Zillow’s Rental Market Trends, recent months show a median rent around $1,700, with typical listings roughly $1,300–$2,400 depending on size and home type; commuting is straightforward via SE Powell to I‑205 and frequent TriMet bus routes.
