Seems like a lot of hackers moving to Portland lately!
- grinich 16y agoIt's a great city, and very affordable.

- davidw 16y agoQuite livable too - you can get around with a bike or public transport (or a car too, it's easier to find parking than in SF). And: Portland has Powell's Books. The problem is the weather: from October to as late as July, there is an awful lot of gray and rain. Not exciting, thunder storm rain, but steady, drizzly rain. If you can handle that, it is indeed a great place.
- nkassis 16y ago"And: Portland has Powell's Books." Good point, that's all I would need to tell my wife to move (she's studying to be a librarian ;p) Nic
- rdl 16y agoSouthwestern Washington (Vancouver, WA, etc.) seems like an even more cost-effective location (0% corp and personal tax in WA, although there is the B&O tax). I'm not sure if the tax/cost savings would make up for the general awesomeness of Portland and suburban/rural boredom of SW WA though.
