Have a 13-15,000 Vehicle per day traffic count.

We were expecting the traffic to be a little slow because of the holiday weekend, but we figured we didn’t have much else to do, so we might as well hold an open house.

When you are zoomed all the way in, you are only looking at what's going on this month, which tells you a lot about how many houses are sold in specific price ranges and/or how many showings sellers received, and how many listings pended, which tells us about current demand and foot traffic.

What other places should I look or am i just being impatient?

The not so obvious ones like folks who build, install and maintain traffic signs and signals.  

Fisher investments moved all 600 of their employees up from The BAy ARea and located in Camas Washington right across the river from PDX>  If Oregon was more business friendly I am sure Fisher would have landed in the Oregon side of the river.But you can be down town ( no traffic ) in 15 to 20 minutes and downtown Vancouver is only 10 minutes from down town PDX.

We were really wanting to go with a wood laminate that could stand up to the traffic and abuse of a long term rental.

It might make more sense to do it that way, depending on how close you are to any military, college, hospital or events nearby that would drive short term traffic.

If you understand SEO and look at traffic (where tenants are searching), you will see that the Zillow Group is gaining the most search volume from tenants looking for rentals.

High traffic area could worth good money for a fast food place or bank.
