Hillsboro

Welcome to Hillsboro

Charming suburban neighborhood with a backdrop of gorgeous natural landscapes.

Located just West of Portland, Hillsboro is the fifth-largest city in Oregon and the county seat of Washington County. Hillsboro was founded in 1842 by European settlers. Hillsboro grew along with the expansion of the Oregon and California railroads, and today the city is home to some of the biggest tech companies in the country. Hillsboro and the surrounding area are called “Silicon Forest.”

Hillsboro’s neighborhoods offer a variety of real estate options. Homebuyers can choose from sprawling single-family homes and mansions to condos and townhouses that are in close proximity to a semi urban feel of shops and restaurants.

For any private pilot, Hillsboro has its own airfield and many private hangars. It is home to several corporate jets, including Nike, as well as executive charter services availability.
