Sunny Portland Oregon! Awesome. If you don't mind the rain its a great town. It's not really rain, more like misty and cloudy 8-9 months of the year. Everything grows here and its very green. It is close to the mountains and the beach. The summer is hot and sunny. The average age is 20-50. Good party town, though not a late night. If you're looking to buy a house now is still a good time. Check north portland.

Portland is very nice. It is a great place to raise a family. It has tons of fun family attractions and lots so night life. It is beautiful and clean. It is always expanding and changing.

Answer 4

I grew up in Oregon.



Portland has some "cosmopolitan" pockets, but there are large areas of "redneck".



Race relations are not really that great, but you never hear about it because there are not that many asians, blacks, and hispanics to begin with.



I do not like Portland. I think it is kind of "hick".
