Established in the 1860s, Woodlawn is the oldest neighborhood to be settled within the former city of Albina, which later consolidated into Portland. The addition of a railroad in 1888 stimulated the area’s economy, transforming the former farm community into a commercial destination.

Currently, homes in the area sell for an average of $503,113, with just under 15 listings currently available. According to Portland Monthly’s most recent real estate market study, Portland’s Boise-Eliot neighborhood is estimated to experience a growth in average home prices of nearly 65% within the next five years.
