      For real. Its only a great place if you are wealthy, white, and attractive. I went with a group of friends after school to one of these trendy bars and was so out of place in my jeans and Old Navy top, chubby brown woman.. Super awkward.

    good thing they didn't mention voodoo donuts. For anyone visiting our city, voodoo is a waste of time. Mediocre donuts after an hour of waiting in line. Guys, it is literally pieces of cereal on a donut. Waste of time. Go to salt and straw or one of the many hip little restaurants after a tiring hike in the gorge: that is a good day. Trust me, I've done that more times than I can remember. It never gets old.

      It's true! As a California native living in Portland for 3 years, I can vouch that everyone raves about the kindness of the people here. I imagine it's about the same as any liberal metropolitan area though, except this one is full of natives who will judge you based on where you are born, and actually treat you different because of it. Is this not a form of (albeit minor) racism in itself? Did all of you natives choose where you were born? I really don't get the hate. We took your jobs and drove up your rent? Come on. Maybe just build a wall around the city? This is in the same racism spectrum as Trump vs the Mexicans, no?

    In just last 3 years Portland traffic, homelessness, and housing prices have become acute problems. The fancy-free attitude of this video is counter to much of the feeling in the City now.
    Portland is wonderful - but it faces forces that threaten to overwhelm it. There are not enough roads, beds, or homes for average people. The rate of change is stunning.
    If you move here with money, please bring a sense of responsibility and help us. If you move here poor - God help you.

    Living only 10 minutes away from Portland, Oregon I've grown up going there on a daily basis. Come visit us, but please reconsider moving because it looks "beautiful and fun". Sure it is! but rent is incredibly high, work is hard to come by (if you don't have a job) homeless camps and people are all around Portland. Not to mention the weather is great for 2 maybe 3 months a year. Otherwise it's mostly overcast and rainy. Like it's a great place to visit! Don't get me wrong! I love Portland but these travel videos only show the best of the city. Not the hidden reality.

    I wish someone would do a virtual tour of all the bike shops here. That's 95% of the reason I want to move there. The bike culture. Although they could learn a thing or two from the Netherlands. Like bicycle parking garages.

      To all you guys what do you think about all the downers who are like "DONT MONT TO PORTLAND" in the comments. I wanna live about 15 or 20 minutes from portland in a couple years, it's kind of my goal. Why are people saying not to move there?

    @tootles_2375 6 лет назад

    I have lived in Portland my hole life and done 1 of those things!
    Because there is so many better things like all of our cultural gardens or our hikes.
    If your looking for something to do in Portland ask a Local they will tell you what to do.
    P.S GO TO VOODOO DONUTS!

    FYI to everyone looking to move to Portland:
    -The job market is terrible.
    -The renting/housing prices are terrible and getting worse.
    -The people here preach open-mindedness, but a lot of them are part of insufferable cliques who don't want anything to do with you.
    Visit here. If you love it, sure, move. Just give it a second thought if you don't.
    Also, I'm disappointed that the video ignored one of the best things about Portland: The fact that it has the most strip clubs per capita. What, no expose about Sassy's?

    • @BrianPatronie
      @BrianPatronie 8 лет назад +18

      They`re mostly here illegally, are poor and drive down property values for starters.

      Ah. I see. If only more wealthy white people would move out to Hillsboro, yes?
