A pseudo-yuppie conservative wanna-be elite village which tries to isolate itself from the rest of the world by inflating "market value" and priding itself for having very few black people. There is a small majority of folks that look frighteningly pale with blue eyes and blond hair. In fact it is not surprising to see large families dressed exactly the same, with the same blank stare on their faces.
The biggest issue facing Lake Oswego at the moment is the building of a tram which will make it easier for the middle class and other undesirables to freely move in and out of the city. And that convenience is feared will lead to some one making less than 50K a year to find a place to live there, which will mean raising the already falsely inflated "market value" that the city is so famous for.
The city is also known for its bizarre, unwritten driving laws and its citizens sense of entitlement.
Lake Oswego is the perfect place to observe the absurd. You are guaranteed a hilarious time people watching there. Just go into the Starbucks at the Safeway on A Street and you can experience the worst of the so-called "upper classes" whilst enjoying a mocha.
Lake Oswego is proof that money does not necessarily mean "class."

When four people approach a 4-way stop intersection, the person that gets to go first is the person that drives the most expensive car.
If you have had botox recently, drivers are encouraged to have the rear-view mirror pointing at their faces, rather than the traffic behind them. This way they can see if there is any movement of their paralyzed faces at all.
And do not be alarmed when you see aforementioned botoxed old men trying to pick up young girls at the High School in their Hummers or Austin Martins: Orange, is a perfectly normal skin color in Lake Oswego.

A former resort town just south of Portland, now a refuge of former yuppies and selfish, wealthy conservatives. Not unlike Pandora's Box, there is a glimmer of reason and truth amongst many of the residents. However, many of them leave for college and wish to never return. And if they do, it's just for the schools. Honest.
A place where tax money goes to bitching at business owners to match a strict color and size scheme for their signs, building colors, curbsides, and anything else that will drive most endeavors into the ground.
A place where Bob and 7-11 are one's only solace.
A place where if you spend over $30,000 on a car, you never have to worry about paying for speeding tickets or even getting pulled over since the most common job in town is being a lawyer.
A place where people call the cops if you leave your front door open for more than five minutes, assuming that terrorists are attacking the neighborhood.
A place that can breed such a cynical person as myself.

Man, Lake Oswego is like a painkiller-induced euphoria for the middle-aged wealthy population that is too fearful to live in Portland.

Although some say that all these definitons arent true and they show that Lake Oswego isn't that bad, it is. Those people are probably just 40 year old lo moms who want lo to look good. it sucks. Lakeridge is the only good school, Lake Oswego High School doesnt know how to party or have fun.
Anyways, LO consists of
0.6% black
4.6% asian
2.3% mexican
1.4% other
and of course, 91.1% white
99% of the moms are botoxed in more than 7 ways
.3% are botoxed in just 1
and the other are real
Lakeridge has a higher acedemic rate than LOHS, but also has more drinking and drug problems.
90% of the kids have BMW's, Jeeps, or Mercedes, the others are just super cool.
Also known as Lake BigEgo, Lake NoNegro, and the Bubble
Also similarly is West Linn but they are nothing compared to Lake Oswego

The most stuck up, rich person "town" in the Portland area. Crimes in this town usually involve stuck up, bratty, spoiled kids not getting what they want. The "lake" is a dammed up creek with un-lake like color and odor. Say 1 thing wrong in this town and everyone knows in 20 minutes.
The only actual "cool" people are not native Lake Oswegians.
Lake Oswego is divided into 2 sides, the Lake Oswego Lakers, and Lakeridge. The only difference between the 2 is that Lake Oswego Lakers is not parent controlled, and they can actually play sports.

Jane: I just fired my dog's masseuse because he wasn't doing a good enough job massaging out her stressed out muscles
Jill: Oh i totally have been in that situation before. Here, I'll give you a good one that has been working with my little Pomeranian for years.
Jane: Oh ok. Is it in Lake Oswego?
Jill: Of course! No one does masseusing like John.

A Senior highschool located in the town of Lake Oswego. It's across the lake from Lakeridge High School. They are known as the "alcohol" school while Lakeridge is the "weed" school. It's filled with a bunch of poser white faggots that get drunk and hit on chicks 4 years younger than them by getting them drunk. They are loser, try-hard shitheads who spoil the name of Lake Oswego. They come from money, so they usually drive around fancy cars they don't deserve, and then go get hammered with other white kids like themselves. The population of black people there is 0.004%
Hey welcome to Florida, where you from?
Oh, Lake Oswego High School. I transfered because they're all poser white kids who get drunk all the time blasting fake ass hip hop in they're pimped out honda civic
That sounds fucking homo
Yea it was bro, it was
