Bend Neighborhood
Mountain View
East-side family value with Cascade views from the right cul-de-sac
Built up around Mountain View High School in the '90s and 2000s, this east-side neighborhood is one of Bend's most accessible price points — manageable lot sizes, family-scale homes, and Cascade views from the streets that face west. The kind of place where families actually start their Bend life.
