I appreciate this in-depth reporting about the city I live in. It definitely doesn't look good having pretty much all of downtown be an opportunity zone, but most other areas of town are even less opportunity zones than downtown.
The west side is millionaire estates and nice suburbs where people that work at Intel live.
North Portland has heavily gentrified into one of the most expensive parts of town in the last few years.
The inner east side of Portland is industrial area, trendy part of town, and historic neighborhoods.
IMO the best area would have been outer SE Portland along 82nd Ave, which is where all the working-class people that can afford to live in Portland are, but that area has always got the short end of the stick from the city so it was never going to happen.
