Centennial, located between I-205 and SE 162nd Ave, is a residential and commercial Portland neighborhood with wide arterial streets and pocket parks. The neighborhood’s energy concentrates around SE Division St and SE 162nd Ave, where taquerias, international groceries, and small storefront services line the sidewalks. Parkrose Hardware stands out as a long-running local anchor for tools, garden supplies, and practical know-how. The Zenger Farm campus adds a working-farm landscape and seasonal community programming. Housing skews toward mid-century ranches and newer infill, with larger lots appearing on quieter side streets. Ed Benedict Park and the Springwater Corridor shape daily routines with fields, trails, and open sky.
