In reply to the discussion: So I'm thinking of moving to Portland...good idea or bad idea? [View all]Lodestar
(2,388 posts)2. I've heard really good things about Portland
A niece of mine who lives in Austin thought she'd like to go to college in Portland.
But she went for a semester and found the whole experience much less to her
liking than she expected and returned to finish her schooling in Austin. I'd
always heard these two cities had a lot in common so was kind of puzzled.
I think it may come down to personalities. My niece prefers the personality
of Austin and its people, while still admiring the good things about both cities.
