Portland-Vancouver
Bi-State Regional Housing Partnership Database |
Presented in an easily navigable format, the Bi-State Regional
Housing database offers a compilation of hundreds of data tables
pertaining to the demographics, economics, and housing conditions
in towns, cities, and counties of the Portland-Vancouver metropolitan
area, and to the metropolitan region as a whole. The tables
are derived from the 1990 and 2000 U.S. Census files. It was created
for the Bi-State Regional Housing Partnership
project by the Portland State University Population Research
Center.

The following links will take you to the database, instructions,

Developers & Collaborators
The Partnership project is a collaborative effort of the Portland-Vancouver
region's affordable housing and community development agency directors
and managers, and the Portland HUD Office. Funded by a special Economic
Development Initiative HUD grant, this project was made possible
through the commitment and dedication of the staff of the Portland
State University Population Research Center and the input of a subcommittee
of the directors' collaborative. We particularly acknowledge the
enthusiasm and energy that John Engle brought to the task before
his death.
