A suburb outside of Portland, Oregon.
You might be from West Linn if....
-You see Escalades, Hummers, Range Rovers, and Mercedes everywhere
-Your McDonald's has a plasma flat screen TV in it
-Some of the Portland TrailBlazers live in your city
-The highschool has an ATM in it
-The only crime that happens is teenagers egging cars....and it makes the local paper
-The majority of students at the high school drink and/or do drugs, yet they are academically one of the best schools in the state
-The cops have nothing better to do than pulling over people for no real reason
-Everyone asks "Are you rich?" or something along these lines when you say you are from West Linn
-There are hardly any minorities in your city
This is a generalization of WL, but it is pretty true.

Get the west linn mug.A girl with a crazy personality. Cora Linn's commonly go by the nick name Cora and are often brunette and possibly short. They tend to love to read and are extremely funny and great to be around. Although they get mad easily and are also quite mean at times. You never know if they are going to attack you. Over all though Cora Linn's are fun girls with a great personality and are extremely confident!
Person 1: "wow I can't believe your best friends with Cora Linn, she's so cool"
Person 2: "yeah she's awesome! But I once got her mad and she bit me"

Get the Cora Linn mug.The local high school for West Linn, Oregon.
While a lot of the students are particularly wealthy, very few of them actually brag about it, as everybody seems to exaggerate. The people who usually write these definitions are usually the rich snobby types who get arrested for doing extremely stupid things and then wondering why.
The teachers are actually very good, but some students (see above) dislike them simply because they openly oppose them.
There are some really cool people at this school, though, amid the crowds of students. Though there are quite a few people who do/have done drugs, they generally are cool people, once you get past that. This usually has to do with the fact that these people do have a lot of money, with parents who have full time jobs meaning they're never at home, so the kids get bored with having everything and being good. Thus, they go do drugs.
There are a good chunk of students that are about middle class, but since people only come on here to rant because they got picked on, you never hear about them. There are some snobby people in this group, but for the most part they're pretty cool, down-to-Earth people.
tl;dr, WLHS is actually a pretty good school to go to. People just complain constantly because they do bad things and can't figure out why they're in trouble.

Kid 1: West Linn High School seriously sucks, man. I kicked over a trash can and a teacher actually had the NERVE to reprimand me! (This is an unrealistic representation since the people who usually do these things probably can't even define 'reprimand')
Kid 2: Yeah, I know, right? It's like they actually expect us to be GOOD and stuff!
or
Kid 1: I got this awesome new laptop for Christmas, and I'm super excited about it!
Snob: Oh you rich people always go on about all your nice fancy stuff because you're all rich and stuff.
Kid 1: Actually, my family had to scrape together the money for this.
Snob: You're a jerk for even trying to talk back to me. Not worth MY time! *goes off to smoke something*

Get the Ebba-Linn mug.A small town in Oregon filled with 38% rich, backstabbing, drinking, mean, gossiping, crowd-following white kids, 13% wierd kids trying to be emo and different but all wear black, 17% people who just complain all the time about the first two groups that make up 51%, 33% of people who do their own thing and hang out in their little cliques that are very exclusive, and 9% of people who actually have substance, aren't materialistic, nice, and genuine. It's hard to find them though.

Get the west linn mug.The primary high school in West Linn, Oregon. It's also a synonym for "cultural wasteland". Most of its students are egotistical, affluenza-affected fucktards who would spend their college funds on Abercrombie and iPods if they could. And despite it's educational performance, a lot of students have questionable intelligence. Oh yeah, and if you aren't out getting wasted frequently, you're basically a nobody.
