    Renter's guide to Vancouver, WA

    With the Columbia River curving upwards from the south to the west, Vancouver, Washington quietly runs along the southernmost tip of the state’s border. At its core, the area feels like a quieter extension of Portland, Oregon. As such, many people have migrated to Vancouver in recent years to support its peaceful suburban atmosphere and growing artistic community.

    Vancouver, Washington is 9 miles north of Portland, Oregon, which means that you can easily enjoy their world-famous fine dining and shopping locales any day of the week. However, since Vancouver is also 3 times smaller and 4 times less populated than Portland, you’ll always have a quiet and cozy place to return to at the end of the day. As for other nearby major cities, the distance from Vancouver, WA to Seattle is 165 miles heading south, which is just perfect for taking day trips to the “Emerald City”. To give some frame of reference, Vancouver is about one-and-a-half times smaller than Seattle, and roughly 4 times less populated.

    Vancouver weather averages in the 60s most of the time, meaning that Vancouver’s climate is basically mild and agreeable all year long. Spring averages 52°F with showers, lots of beautiful flowers and cool nights. Summer averages 67°F with warm days easing into cooler evenings.
