Just 8 miles south of Portland, Lake Oswego is one of the region’s most affluent suburbs. Historic Lake Oswego’s charming downtown area has successfully maintained a small-town community feel. The charming shops, restaurants and services along A Avenue and First Steet attract visitors from Portland and nearby suburbs alike. The lake itself is, Oswego Lake, though the lake is naturally occurring (a former channel of the Tualatin River), it has been significantly altered because of the concrete dam that has increased its size to 395 acres.
With the scarcity of building easements, lakefront property remains prestigious, and a number of architecturally significant homes have been built along its shores, including the Carl C. Jantzen Estate, a Tudor-style estate on the National Register of Historic Places, built on an island on the lake’s north shore by the founder of the Jantzen swimwear company in 1930. In addition, the lakeshore features homes by noted Portland architects such as Richard Sundeleaf and Van Evera Bailey.
The Lake Oswego School District serves the city’s approximately 7,000 students, with a ratio of 23 students per instructor. The two high schools in the district are Lake Oswego High School and Lakeridge High School. There are nine elementary schools and two junior high schools.
