Old and new blend the city’s historical beginning with its modern lifestyles. Namesake roads, historical spots and living descendants of the city’s first pioneers are still a part of today’s Happy Valley, but its growth would certainly be a source of pride and amazement to its early settlers. Family-friendly neighborhoods, city parks, green spaces and walking trails traverse the hills and valleys throughout the residential surroundings. An established business corridor provides shopping and services for the local area, and the award-winning schools of the North Clackamas School District offer educational opportunities to the fortunate families who proudly call Happy Valley their home.
