All cities are not perfect but I think that Portland is a lot better than the cities in Texas where I live because in Texas we have illegals that are living here illegaly and they are causing huge crime problems. In Texas we have very serious problems with gangs and drugs from mexico and the traffic in portland oregon is nothing compare to houston and Dallas Tx.So I will take the traffic in Portland Or because I drove there in Portland and I can tell you that the traffic is much better than Houston and Dallas. The weather here in Tx are horrible compare to Oregon. Portland is also much much prettier than all of the Texas cities. I find Portland has a very nice comfortable summer than Texas. Yeah its may rain a lot in Oregon from late fall until early spring but Oregon has seven months of really nice weather. In Texas the weather is crap all year long because its so hot over 100 degree with high humidity from late may until early oct and its seem like summer in Texas is getting longer every year. In the winter in Texas we have horrible ice storm with cold snap and plus its so windy all the time in Texas. I much rather have portland or weather over Texas weather because you can't do outdoor activities for fun in Tx and in oregon you can because its much cooler there in Oregon.
