Located just a short drive north of Portland, Oregon, the “other” city of Vancouver is nestled between the Cascade Mountains and the Pacific Ocean on the banks of the great Columbia River in southwest Washington. A thriving community of nearly 165,000 residents, Vancouver is the economic and retail hub of Southwest Washington.
Its natural beauty and tight-knit community earned the city the honor of being named an “All-America City” in 1957 and again 30 years later in 1987. Vancouver assisted living seniors never have a shortage of things to do in this vibrant, growing city, which is now the fourth largest in Washington State.
Vancouver Recreation
Shopping at the Westfield Vancouver Mall is a favorite pastime of Vancouver senior living residents. The mall is home to over 120 shops and restaurants as well as a branch of the Vancouver Mall Library, hair salons, dental clinics and more.
Many Vancouver seniors also make the short trip into Portland to the Jantzen Beach SuperCenter where the shopping is tax free. Located just off the main Interstate near the Washington/Oregon border, Jantzen Beach is a convenient place to eat and shop.
