Portland, Oregon is the one of the most beautiful, clean, and unique city on the West coast. Though Portland may have many different 'scenes' and 'types' of locals (yuppies, hipsters, folkies...etc), we all have have something in common...the love and respect for our environment. It's an artsy city as the Willamette river divides the city in two creating even more subcultures. However, as city development continues and housing prices start to rise, what used to be cool parts of Portland are turning into high-priced, fabricated yuppie scenes.
Aside from all the outdoorsy activity that Portland offers, the city hosts an awesome music scene. Many great bands come from Portland and most bands that travel from San Fransisco to Seattle stop at one of many Portland's great venues.
P.s. Californians stay out

A gay or effeminate chinese man. So named after Portland Street in Manchester, England, which runs between the gay quarter and Chinatown.

Think Seattle without the grunge.
Or New Jersey without the emo.
And you're halfway there.
Also has a blooming gay hustler scene and is home to many gutter punks. It's a cool place to live if you're a liberal. Probably not that great if you're conservative,but who gives a crap about them really? :P
Oh,and the guy who wrote Fight Club come from Portland,so it's GOTTA be cool.

"Portland: the diet NY." sniffed a New York hipster before being severely beaten by Portland punks in Exploited tees.

The best city that America has to offer. Located in Oregon, also the best state in the union. The people here are nice, open-minded, and care for the environment. We aren't corrupt like Southern California or Seattle, both of which are concrete jungles full of rude, fake people. We also have one of the best organized recycling programs and public transportation. (We care about the air we breathe and the forests we hike) People from here are down to earth and spend much of their time outdoors. Everyone else in the US is jealous, theres not ONE reason to hate Portland.
"I hate Portland! They're all hippies and bums, and Seattle Wanna-be's!" - Jealous outsider, probably a Seattle-ite who has a strange inferiority complex for his/her own crappy city.

Biggest City in Oregon
Weather:
Winters are 30-40ish on avg. mix of rain, and sunny/cold days.
Spring is sopping wet
Summer ranges from warm to sweaty balls.
Fall gets wet again.
Most strip clubs per capita than any other city in the US, and strippers get fully naked (o)(o) :D
We are known as the City of Roses...and some dumb politician changed it to "The City that works"...LAME...all residents ignored that, and still call it the City of Roses.
in 2011 Portland Timbers turned pro MLS.
favorite chant: "build a bonfire, build a bonfire, put Seattle up on top, put Vancouver in the middle and we'll burn the whole fucking lot!!!"
Timbers Army is known as the roudiest/loudest/intimidating MLS fans in the nation!
Coffee Drinkers galore, but real friends don't let friends drink Starbucks!!!! fuck their burnt ass coffee beans!
Beer heaven
Lots of recycling goin on!
for pop/beer/water bottles, you have to pay $0.05 deposit during purchase...then later can recycle to get your $0.05 back...but i despise waiting 1hr in a line to redeem $7 worth, so I always leave em for the bums.
Not everything is outdoorsy, like most larger cities there's a plethora of bars, strip clubs (woo-hoo boobies!), night clubs, restaurants, museums, golf courses, movie theaters (including omni-max), the list goes on and on...but i'll stop here.
