I have the opportunity to move near Portland, Oregon.

And since you live there, I was gonna ask you, do you like it, and how expensive is it, and what is the weather like?

If you wanna add anything thing else, then go ahead.

Just wondering...:eek:k:

Not milo obviously,
but you might want to think about sunny days. We have a lot here in Florida and not having them might affect you more than you would realize.

Probably so. I'm not a big fan of gloomy, rainy days. That was one reason I asked about the weather. Although I am originally from the north, so I do miss snow, and was wondering how much snow if any do they get there.

4 months out of the year, Oregon has the best weather in the country, IMO. May-August is sunny, 85-100F with no humidity. March, April, September and October are all mixed-bags, and December-February it just rains a lot. Portland is nestled in a valley between a coastal mountain range and the Cascade Mountains, so we're shielded from a lot of extreme weather. It doesn't get above 85-90 degrees most days out of the summer (maybe peaking once or twice a year in the 105 neighborhood) or below 25-30 degrees most days out of the winter, with almost no snow. There might be snow maybe a day or two every few years, tops.

Cost of living isn't too bad. Houses in Portland itself are fairly expensive, in the area of $400,000 median price. There are numerous and varied suburbs, though. One thing that is a factor, though, is the fact that there is a pretty high income tax here. There is no sales tax in Oregon, though.

Anything else you need to know? Family situation? Industry? etc.
