Review of Portland, Oregon


If you are a nature lover, you will LOVE Portland!
Star Rating - 1/13/2006
I think that Portland is a beautiful city. But, what I really, REALLY, dislike is that a ton of people from California etc are moving up here. It's pretty disapointing, because on the SW side at least, a ton of new ugly houses are being built. But, do not worry, because other areas of Portland are still gorgeous. One of the things that is awesome about Portland, for all of you nature lovers out there, is that it's surrounded by a beautiful Forest and if you go up to the North side, there's also the gorgeous Columbia River! What else is good, again, if you're a nature lover- is the breath taking Columbia Gorge and Muthnomah Falls, which is just about a 30 minute drive from Portland. These are the reasons that I love Portland. Hopefully, it'll stay beautiful like this forever.
