Washougal, WA: Life in a Border Town 4.5 rating By Anonymous ( May 16, 2018) Living in Washougal has been a great experience. This small city is Located in the State of Washington, but it sits right at the Oregon Border about 23 miles northeast of Portland, Oregon. I think the best part about living in this city, is the fact that I am so close to the bord ...Read More er, and because of this privilege I am able to frequently visit the beautiful city of Portland while still maintaining Washington residence. This is a fantastic place to live, in fact it is highly ranked by many sources in the "safest places to live in Washington".

I often find myself traveling south to Portland to enjoy the local bars and restaurants, being a Portland Native, it feels great to say I am not far from home when in Washougal..but at this point Washougal feels like home! Some of the best areas in Washougal to grab a meal are close to Highway 14, but it is quite easy to hop on the freeway and head to Portland where the restaurant industry is currently thriving.
