I have been to Bend and Sisters in the High Desert area, and I will be hated if I in any way cause more people to move there. There are bumper stickers that ask people not to move there.
Portland, that beautiful city on the Willamette, has arguably the best airport in the USA. Landing at PDX on a day when Mount Hood is clearly visible,and when the Cascades can be seen from the airplane window, well that's a magnificent experience.
Images to be added in due course.
Californians are moving north in search of greener pastures, more rain, cheaper property, no sales tax and low crime rates, in fact a better quality of life in many Oregon areas. It is perceived that these people are driving up property prices, exacerbating urban sprawl and spoiling the environment. You may agree, but as a foreigner it is not my place, one can argue, to comment.
