Newport, OR
A major disappointment... -
11/10/2012I have lived in many parts of the country (and world) due to my husbands career in the construction industry, and Newport is honestly one of the worst places I have ever been. I am originally from Seattle, and prior to coming here we moved from Williston, ND. People here are less friendly, less educated, less cultered, less interesting, less tolerant and have little to no work ethic. I am not a snob, in fact it takes very little to impress me, but this is the most pathetic unaccepting uninteresting unmotivating lowest class place I have ever been. The only thing that is beautiful here is the beach...that is if you don't step on a dope needle and manage to get here the one month a year its not too foggy to see it. Nothing to do from Sep - Jun but go to Fred Meyer and watch people deal drugs in the parking lot. Oh, and don't waste your money eating out. Despite the abundance of fresh local seafood and organic produce - you won't find a decent meal here. Good luck! I can't wait to leave. Would rather go back to Williston.
