Marshall Park
Southwest Portland, about 4.29 miles from downtown, in Multnomah County.
Marshall Park's 655 homes have a median build year of 1975, newer than 85% of Portland neighborhoods, and the average home runs 2,265 sq ft, larger than 85%. In my comparison of lot sizes, the average of 18,040 sq ft was larger than 95% of the 86 other neighborhoods, and tree canopy of 68.5% beat 95% as well. Foley-Balmer Natural Area and Jensen Natural Area are among the parks I mapped. Sidewalk coverage is an estimated 7.8%, lower than 95% of the city.
