Northcrest

SE Vancouver • Clark County, WA

Northcrest is an established residential neighborhood in central Vancouver, set on a bluff that looks out over Burnt Bridge Creek and the open fields below. That edge-of-the-greenway setting is its signature — you get a settled in-town location with a surprising amount of nature right at the bottom of the hill.

It’s a quiet, walkable, mostly owner-occupied neighborhood with coffee shops and parks close at hand and quick access to downtown and I-5. Homes here tend to be a bit older, which keeps it more affordable than Vancouver’s newer subdivisions.
