We celebrate our history, but we’re always looking forward—embracing growth, creativity and innovation without losing sight of who we are. In fact, it’s our roots that have instilled our innate resilience, grit and community spirit.

We stand for inclusivity. We’re a place where all are welcome, where differences are celebrated, and where belonging is a given, not a question. Our doors are open to everyone—from longtime locals to newcomers just discovering what we have to offer.

Above all, we stand for real, meaningful connections. Whether it’s a conversation with a local shop owner or an impromptu meetup at the farmers market, we’re a district built on relationships. We believe that the best communities are the ones that lift each other up, and we’re proud to be a place where that happens every day.

FreeMoreWest is a place where everyone can be themselves, where local culture shines, and where businesses are more than just storefronts—they’re the lifeblood of our community.

Our neighborhood pride runs deep in FreeMoreWest—we believe that west IS best.

We believe that community is everything. That we’re more than a neighborhood or district—we’re an inclusive cultural hub where people come together, local businesses thrive and connections are made.

We want our streets to be filled with the energy of people who care about where they live, who support one another and who believe that a vibrant, welcoming community can make a real difference.

We believe in the power of local. From coffee shops and yoga studios to professional services and neighborhood associations, every one of our businesses and organizations play a role in shaping FreeMoreWest. And we’re proud to be a neighborhood that fosters and champions independence, creativity and entrepreneurial spirit.
