Neighborhood Life
While Green Hills East is technically in Salem, it does feed into Aumsville Elementary, Cascade Junior High, and Cascade High School unlike Spring Lake Estates, which feeds into the Jefferson school district. People live in this neighborhood for the close proximity to the highway and amenities while still living on acreage outside city limits. Even though it has good highway access, it is quiet in the neighborhood. It is about 7-10 minutes to get to Costco, Trader Joes, or Winco and all of the amenities on Commercial and Kuebler in Salem. Wineries are also close by as are u-pick produce farms for whatever you can’t or don’t want to grow yourself. Healthcare is also close by with Salem Clinic, Kaiser Permanente, and Praxis Health all within 15 minutes of this subdivision.
