Eastside Village is part of a growing national movement enabling older adults to age at home and in their community safely, affordably, happily, and healthily for as long as they choose. This kind of village is not a building, real estate development, or retirement community. It is a coordinated network of volunteer and professional services.  In short, Eastside Village is a PLAN, not a PLACE.


Launched in October 2015, Eastside Village serves 23 Portland neighborhoods on the east side of Portland, Oregon, from the Willamette River to 122nd Avenue, and from I-84 to the city’s southern boundary.
