About Sherwood
Sherwood is one of the fastest-growing cities in the metro, about 16 miles southwest of downtown Portland along OR-99W. It pairs with a deliberately small-town feel — a walkable Old Town core, the Robin Hood Festival each summer and new subdivisions spreading toward the Tualatin River National Wildlife Refuge. Commuters rely on OR-99W and Roy Rogers Road, with no rail service.
