Hockinson is Southwest Washington's BEST KEPT Secret | FULL VLOG | Living in Vancouver Washington

 

Welcome to the hidden gem of Clark County – Hockinson! I'm Cassander Marks, but you can call me Realtor Cas, your local tour guide to everything in Southwest Washington, Clark County, and Vancouver. If you're here, it's probably because you've heard whispers about this fabulous, yet relatively undiscovered area. Well, let me take you on a journey through the enchanting landscapes, rich culture, and captivating homes that make Hockinson such a unique place.

Where is Hockinson?

Hockinson, often referred to as the best-kept secret in Clark County, is located about 15 miles northeast of downtown Vancouver. But don't expect to find it on your GPS as an official city – it's a "census designated place" designated by the United States Census Bureau for statistical purposes. Most of the homes in Hockinson are officially listed under neighboring areas like Brush Prairie, Battleground, or Vancouver. But these technicalities don't diminish Hockinson's charm or appeal. Let's delve into some quick facts about this remarkable place:

Quick Facts about Hockinson

Hockinson might not be an official city, but it boasts a population of just over 6,100 residents spread over 14 square miles. The area is known for its excellent school district, featuring an elementary, middle, and high school. Hockinson also has a small city center with one key intersection that includes the Hockinson Market, Hockinson Autoworks, and the Cloverlane Mercantile and Event Center. Additionally, you'll find a few other local businesses and a gas station that serves the community.

4 Reasons Why People Love Hockinson

So why do people fall in love with Hockinson? There are several reasons why this area is gaining popularity, and I'm here to spill the beans:

  1. Beautiful Homes: One of the key attractions of Hockinson is its stunning homes. You can find residences in one of three distinct areas: a cozy corner of Vancouver with new developments, the expansive fields of the Hockinson Flats, or the peaceful seclusion of the Hockinson Hills. Most homes come with substantial acreage, ranging from one to five acres or more. It's common to see homes with five-acre plots, making it an ideal spot for gardening or keeping animals. Hockinson's real estate caters to all preferences, whether you desire a sense of community or complete seclusion.

  2. Rural Living with City Amenities: Hockinson offers the unique blend of rural living with the convenience of city amenities. You'll be pleasantly surprised to know that you can live in this bucolic setting while remaining just a short drive away from all the amenities Vancouver has to offer. Major grocery stores like Fred Meyer and Walmart are within a 15-minute drive from most places in Hockinson. Target may require a slightly longer drive of around 20-25 minutes, but it's still easily accessible.

  3. Outstanding School District: The small size of Hockinson leads to smaller class sizes in its schools. This, coupled with a community that values education, results in excellent schools. Residents are willing to support higher school bonds to ensure top-notch education and well-paid educators.

  4. Natural Beauty: The most obvious reason people adore Hockinson is its breathtaking natural beauty. Whether it's the expansive flats with farms, animals, and open fields, or the picturesque wooded hillsides offering stunning territorial views, Hockinson has something for everyone. The ample space allows residents to find precisely what they're looking for, whether it's a connection to nature or an escape into the woods.

Hockinson offers a diverse range of properties, from historic farmhouses to modern dream homes, and everything in between. It's no wonder that so many people are drawn to this captivating area.
