Fairmount Neighborhood
As you’re likely aware already, the University of Oregon is a huge draw for many people relocating to Eugene. It’s Oregon’s top public university and home to almost 25,000 undergraduate and graduate students.
If you’re moving to Eugene to pursue a degree or work at the university, we’re guessing that you’ll want to be close to the U of O but not too close. Land in the West University neighborhood or the area immediately south of the U of O, and you’ll have to deal with steep prices, an itinerant student population, and frequent parties.
That means the Fairmount and Amazon neighborhoods are likely your most attractive options. In the case of Fairmount, the U of O is just blocks to the west, but student rentals aren’t nearly as predominant as in other locales. Instead, you’ll find plenty of working families, professionals, retirees, and of course university professors and other UO employees.
The Fairmount neighborhood has plenty else going for it too. The corner of 19th and Agate features a holy trifecta of Eugene’s finest ice cream parlor (Prince Puckler’s), patisserie (Sweet Life), and Italian eatery (Beppe and Gianni’s Trattorria). In the warmer months, there’s even a weekly Farmer’s Market.
But Fairmount’s main attraction is probably the sprawling Hendrick’s Park. Occupying 80 wooded acres, it’s a popular destination for city residents looking for a bit of seclusion and its world-renowned rhododendron garden. There’s plenty of desirable real estate surrounding the park, though expect prices toward the higher end of Eugene’s market.
