    Moving to Portland, what can you tell me?

    So I'm considering a move to Portland Oregon, maybe, not sure yet.. Who's got info on the city?

    Tell me about some different parts of the town, cool bars, where I can get a crackwhore, 24hr breakfast joints, different neighborhoods, etc..

    thanks

                  haha, it's cold here in Minnesota, and I like the ocean.

                          well, it rains a lot, you're only an hour from the ocean, and most homes have good heaters so you won't worry about being cold...

                              The rain is fine, I need a change most of all. I have friends up around those parts so I'll be able to visit again soon.

                                          The end.

                                                  I can't wait to get the fuck outta here next week.

                                                              Most of the East side is Methtown. Most of North Portland is gangland (though nothing compared to SoCal). Downtown is somewhat nice. Anwhere slightly south or west is good (Lake Oswego, Beaverton, Sylvan Hills).

                                                              I currently live about 10 miles south of downtown and like it. It can get rainy and cold, but nothing like MN - usually snow doesn't stick around for long in the valleys. Sometimes there will be 60+ rainy days in a row, but it's usually intermittent with sun breaks.

                                                              Anywhere near downtown is full of hippie-liberal types. There's lots of homeless urchin kids who beg for drug money too. It sucks because there's some cool stuff downtown, but you gotta put up with those scumbags ...

If it wasn't for the weather I'd still be there. I miss it so much.

                                                                                                                                                  I've lived EVERY where in that town from NW, to downtown, to gangland NE, Meth central SE, Sellwood, Beaverton, Lake O, ect. ect. I've never had a problem in any area except NE (the gangs had gun battles every night). NW is awesome if you can afford it. Beaverton and Lake Owsego are nice suburbs to live in.

                                                                                                                                                  The girls party hard in Portland. Because of the rain they prefer "indoor sports". Plus there's a strip club on every corner!

                                                                                                                                                  Downtown Portland is an awesome town. Love the culture, and it's very pretty. Yes, there are street kids, but they're easy enough to deal with.

                                                                                                                                                  Oh, and something I totally miss down here in SoCal..... when you let someone in your lane in traffic they give you the wave. Damn I miss the wave.

                                                                                                                                                                                      portland, like most places, has positives and negatives. personally, i can't take the weather but it is awesome to be so close to both the beach and the mountains. if you like lush, beautiful forests, there are few places better.

                                                                                                                                                                                      hope you like it there! there are a lot of fun people in that area.
