My company has a branch in Vancouver WA and Portland and I have looked many times as I am a trail/ultra runner however the out of control drug use that has destroyed Portland in my opinion keeps me from considering the area
I made the move from Texas to Oregon in 2018. I lived on the coast, lived in Portland and in the valley. The best part was the valley McMinnville in particular however, I moved right before the pandemic and only went back once to try it one more time as I’m a big love nature and the outdoors and Oregon definitely has this hands-down, but I could not overcome all of the drug addicts and wading through homeless people, human waste all over the sidewalks to get to the front door of my office in Portland. Also the evening commute killed me. I will never consider living there again during the current state of the USA. I moved out of the country 2 years ago from Salem and best decision of my life.
Thanks for your comment. I agree parts of Portland have their problems. Is it getting better? I personally think so, but there is still a long way to go. Best of luck with life in your new country...
@@relocatingtoportlandoregon Getting better? Things don't get better unless you do something to fix it and improve it. Oregon government does nothing to fix current problems. It's going to get worse.
Thank you. Your video is very helpful. : )

Part of the solution is for people who hate Oregon to leave. I hope you enjoy whatever country you moved to! Bye now!!!
There's more to life than flannels and eating out. Enough already
