About this Recovery Home
The Hoop House is a men's sober living home on SW 170th Avenue in Beaverton, Oregon, in Washington County. Sober Living PDX runs it as part of a group of recovery residences spread across the Portland metro area. The building covers 4,591 square feet, which makes it one of the larger houses the operator keeps, and the listed rate is $800 a month.
A Men's Sober House on SW 170th Avenue
Every resident here is a man in recovery, and that single restriction settles more than it sounds like. Bathrooms, house meetings and shared living space are all written for one population, and one set of expectations covers the household. SW 170th Avenue runs north and south through the residential blocks west of downtown Beaverton, between the Tualatin Valley Highway and Farmington Road. This is a working stretch of Washington County. Grocery stores, warehouses, restaurant kitchens and light industrial employers sit within a couple of miles, which matters a great deal in the first month after treatment, when a paycheck is usually the difference between staying housed and going backward.
Space and Cost at This Beaverton Recovery Home
At 4,591 square feet, the house has room for a full household without anyone sitting in a hallway during a meeting. Bedrooms are shared, which is what holds the figure at $800 a month, and the rooms come furnished. That removes the cost most people hit first on leaving residential treatment: a bed, a dresser and a kitchen full of things nobody has money to replace. A furnished room in a house with rules is a different product from a cheap private lease, and the price reflects a shared household with accountability built into it.
How Oregon Sober Living Accreditation Works
Oregon does not license recovery residences. The state's voluntary standard is administered by the Mental Health and Addiction Certification Board of Oregon, the state's affiliate of the National Alliance for Recovery Residences, and it accredits the organization operating the housing. Accreditation binds that organization to a written code of ethics, disclosure of fees and house rules before anyone moves in, a documented relapse and discharge policy, and a complaint process reaching outside the house itself. Because participation is optional and the board publishes no house-by-house list, an applicant comparing sober living homes in Washington County gets further by asking the operator what it holds and reading the residence agreement in full.
Washington County Recovery Housing on the Westside
Beaverton is the largest city in Washington County and the anchor of the Portland area's westside. Hillsboro, a few miles farther out along the same rail line, is the county seat, so the circuit court, the county health department and the sheriff's office all sit within a bus and train ride. TriMet's MAX Blue Line runs from Hillsboro through Beaverton Transit Center into downtown Portland, and frequent bus service on 185th, Murray Boulevard and the Tualatin Valley Highway feeds it. A man living in a Beaverton sober house can meet a court obligation, keep an outpatient appointment and hold a job without owning a car. That is the practical gap between recovery housing here and recovery housing in a small Oregon town.
Sober Living PDX Recovery Homes Nearby
Several of the operator's houses sit in the Beaverton area, and the rest are spread through Portland, Tigard and Milwaukie. A resident whose job or treatment provider moves across the metro can raise a transfer with people who already know him, and the house expectations travel with him to the new address. That portability is the strongest argument for choosing an operator with several houses over a standalone sober home.
What to Ask Before Moving Into This Beaverton Sober House
The useful questions at this address are specific ones: how many men share a bedroom, whether a house manager sleeps on site, how curfew is set for someone working a night shift, who can call for a drug test and what happens after a positive one, and whether medication for opioid use disorder is accepted. Sober Living PDX publishes a zero-tolerance policy on alcohol, drugs and non-prescribed medication, and expects residents to be working, in school, in outpatient treatment or volunteering. Getting the rest in writing before signing is ordinary practice at a well-run sober house.
