Review of Bend, Oregon


Life in Bend OR
Star Rating - 8/31/2006
Life here is very different. It is seperated between the newbies and the ones who grew up here! Most of the newbies seem to be rich "wana-be's". They are familys that wanted to be the best and richest where they came from...but couldnt, so they came here to flash their money around. Some families however, are here just trying to make a living and enjoy life. Because of the increse in population, the traffic is terrible...the mix of driving styles is scary...and there are fewer road rules and no one to inforce them.
