[QUOTE=nobody;2583530]Portland, United States of America
Pros:
- Gastronomical wonderland.
- Beer. So much beer.
- Bicycles
- Public transportation
- Urban growth boundary (Portland has a dense urban core and sprawl is somewhat mitigated)
- Extremely socially progressive (for the states)
- Huge software / web development scene
- Rain
- Craft / bespoke culture
- Outdoors stuff super close
- Great music scene
Cons:
- Sort of small
- Trains stop around midnight
- Not dealing particularly well with our large homeless population
- Flipside of craft culture is that we don’t have many large corporations to supply jobs
- It’s America so we still rely too much on cars and highways
- Too many parking lots in the city core (though this is quickily changing)
- Super super super white, not a racist town by any means, but definitely a homogenous one
Other stuff!![/QUOTE]
I could go on for days about the pros and cons of portland. Mostly cons though. xD.
I totally made this thread just to hate on portland.
