For those who have an avid love for the great outdoors but also like to be able to mingle with city dwellers, Oregon is the place for you.
Neatly divided into distinct eastern and western regions by the Cascade Range, Oregon’s most family-friendly cities are as diverse as its landscape.
With access to breathtaking wilderness areas, sweeping deserts and long stretches of coastline, families who value outdoor recreation thrive here.
Similarly, those seeking access to arts and culture will find exceptional theater, live music, and art museums even in the smallest towns.
Although the Oregon state capital is Salem, the city of Portland is where the action is at. This city is famed for its progressive and trendsetting culture.
Because of its diverse landscapes and waterways, Oregon's economy is largely powered by various forms of agriculture, fishing, and hydroelectric power.
Technology is another one of Oregon's major economic forces, beginning in the 1970s with the establishment of the Silicon Forest and the expansion of Tektronix and Intel.
Are you moving to Oregon?

I lived in Oregon for 6 months but ended up moving to Arkansas, I plan on going back once I can because I miss the beauty of Oregon.

I'm from Oregon. I stopped the video as soon as the recommended Portland. Anybody who recommends Portland as a top 10 place to live in Oregon, doesn't have a clue.

Portland, Bend, Ashland, Sherwood, West Linn, Lake Oswego, Eugene, , some of the most expensive places to live in the west. I love how she hardly ever talks about income rates, housing costs, food prices, etc

I live in Oregon. I used to be able to walk a trail and not see another person for hours. Not anymore. The trails are crowded, the beaches are crowded, and the roads are packed. It’s ruined.

(To the ppl hating on Californians for wanting to move to Oregon)
You know, it’s not our fault that our own state has already been ruined because ppl from ALL OVER THE COUNTRY come wanting to be actors/artist of some kind or ppl just wanting more than being some house wife in Nebraska . I understand the appeal. We have sunshine and The Stars, we are a liberal state where in most places cultures are celebrated happily and so on. We are not perfect in the slightest but I understand it perfectly. I’m from Los Angeles and believe me when I say that leaving California is not a choice I would have made 100% happily if my rent was realistically affordable, if there was no traffic up the ying yang and IN-N-OUT lines weren’t so long amongst other more things.. We have plenty of mountains, beaches and trees n shit to last us a lifetime of adventure. But unfortunately California is becoming a place for the few elite. Washington, Oregon, California, NY, Texas, Florida. We’re all on the same boat.

You better come visit again. A whole bunch has changed since your last visit. Don’t get out of the car in Portland.

Describing Bend as “affordable” is hilarious😂😂😂

When I first visited and worked in Oregon as a travel nurse, it was so beautiful and peaceful. I came back and worked again 5 years later and asked:”where did all these people come from?” It sucks that so many people learned about the secret known as Oregon :(

Born and raised in Oregon, I alway's thought I would die here. Now it's a haven for the homeless, and relies heavily on property and income taxes to support everyone. My wife and I are planning to move out of state in the next few years.

Imagine watching a video where they only show clips of your city covered in snow, except it only snows in winter. That's my biggest problem with videos like this. Sure our summers are incredible, which is why if you love the outdoors it's amazing to vacation here during the summer. The footage should be of rain. Drenching rain, sprinkling rain, hail and black skies, days with solid white clouds where it's dark by 4:30pm. I've lived here my whole life, in different areas of Portland, and now with my family in the suburbs. I watch people move here, want to make friends, and leave after a year or two. Either due to underestimating the weather, or they get tired of working 2-3 jobs just to make rent. This isn't a place you move to and hope to get a job. For white collar professionals I've grown up with, there's better opportunities and they have mostly left. Is Oregon amazing? Yes. But it's not sustainable to work so hard for so little.

Portland shouldn’t be in this list either

So, Oregon’s ‘best places to live’ are all located on the west side of the state (with the exception of Bend)??? Cool! I’ll continue to live in beautiful (and affordable) Eastern Oregon with little company

Well you named all the most expensive areas in Oregon. Well done! Not realistic for most retirees.

OR & WA are the most beautiful states . Just take a turn off any major highway and you’re surrounded by farms and trees and fields. It’s unbelievable ! Portland will recover.

Oregon is becoming the new California gets worse every year. I am looking for a new state to move to. Don't believe what this video tells you because it makes it sound much better than it really is. Check it out in person before you move here.

With all due respect, I call BS for including Eugene on this list... if you like graffiti everywhere, and all your parks completely overrun with homeless campers, then you will like Eugene just fine.
