Oregon Living
Depending on who you are, it’s either the endpoint or starting point of the Oregon Trail – or maybe it’s a little of both. Inland residents and visitors flock year-round to the long Oregon coastline and Oregon’s magnificent range of Cascade Mountains and Volcanoes. Flights and tickets into Oregon usually touch down near the charming hotels and B&Bs in Portland, Salem, Eugene, Bend, Lincoln City, Newport, Medford, and Pendleton.
Sightseeing and the Big Outdoors
Known as the “Beaver State,” Oregon’s preserved countryside and woods create a rare sanctuary for the industrious creatures. Whether hiking, fishing, hunting, or sightseeing, one is bound to catch sight of a beaver and perhaps his or her floating beaver cabin. Rafting, canoeing, inner tubing, river or lake camping, and blue moons are additional prizes found in and around Oregon’s forests, waterfalls, mountains, and coasts.
Oregon’s measures to retain high levels of ecological sustainability, low exhaust emissions, and air quality protection exemplify the state’s general philosophy about keeping the “undiscovered” country a little undiscovered for future generations.
Off the coast, Oregon urban residents may enjoy summer getaways with clean beaches and affordable summer rental homes and cabins. Healthy living and children safety are two high priorities of Oregon communities in these areas.
Nutrition and Agriculture
Along with Oregon’s natural beauty and the state government’s quest to preserve that beauty, Oregon offers a collateral benefit in the form of high nutrition. Oregon residents are able to take advantage of fresh produce from the fertile Willamette Valley, which is fed by clean spring waters, as well as serve their families fresh red meats and fish.
A City of Roses
Oregon’s most populous city, Portland, attracts many residents to its culture of music, art, and humor. Power-pop, alternative rock, and folk music are major influences in Portland, having given birth to groups such as the Dandy Warhols, Everclear, and Pink Martini. One of the most famous residents of Portland is Matt Groening, creator of The Simpsons. The microbrewery revolution is a unique aspect of Portland (and Oregon’s) culture, giving taste, body, and froth voices in Oregon’s social world.
Nike and Intel are two major manufacturing and high-tech employers near Portland. The lumber industry also keeps a presence in parts of Oregon. Portland area sports teams include the NBA Trail Blazers and the LumberJax, a professional lacrosse team.
Portland is renown for its splendid rose gardens. Oregon's rich soil sprouts many different types of flowers and trees, as well as grapes, hazelnuts, and Douglas fir pines.
