References to geography in Oregon are funny. Portlanders always refer to Bend (for example) as "Eastern Oregon" even though it is the center of the state. Actually, it's to the west-center if anything. Wallowa, Union, Baker counties might as well be the other side of the planet. ;-D
- dgzl 8y agoI don't think I've ever heard someone call Bend Eastern Oregon. That's just ignorance
- krupan 8y agoThe dividing line is the Cascade Mountains. If you've ever seen both sides of those mountains in Oregon or Washington, you know why: very different climates.
- ip26 8y agoNothing new there. Colombus, OH is in the "Midwest", despite being nearly in line with the Jacksonville Atlantic coastline.
