No Jobs Even Before The Recession I have lived many places and never had a more difficult time finding a job than I did in Coos Bay. What jobs are willing to pay compared with the cost of living is completely out of whack. You could do a lot better in the midwest or just about anywhere. Many people on the coast survive on minimum wage and live in low-income housing or run-down trailers. Opportunities for teachers are almost zilch, as many of the schools are closing down. Competition for jobs is also extremely tough, as even teenagers are competing with middle-aged people for grocery store bagboy positions. It was like this BEFORE the recession, now I hear it is even worse!
