82nd Avenue is an area leaders say has been stricken by poverty and inequality. It's centered in one of the most racially and culturally diverse areas in the state of Oregon.
“82nd Avenue is the economic and cultural heart of a thriving and diverse community. There are countless stores and restaurants and other destinations that really reflect the cultural and language-specific needs of community members," said U.S. Rep. Suzanne Bonamici, D-Oregon.
