1. Texans 2. The state of Oregon Jason (husband) wanted Portland, but you should SEE the cost-of-living difference between Oklahoma and Portland. Plus, it's sunnier in Corvallis. And I'll get the chance to cheer for a football team with a small furry woodland creature as a mascot. Can't beat that. EXACTL...wait a sec...you're mocking me aren't you. It's true. I'm a snob. I can't help it. Maybe you good people can help me. Last edited by BarbaraGordon; 01-11-2007 at 08:01 PM. |

Corvallis is nice. In fact the whole I-5 corridor through Oregon is liveable, as long as you don't mind the hippie, yuppy, tree-hugging type.
And I agree that the weather in Portland stinks. Throw Seattle and everything else in between the two in the mix as well. The area is beautiful, its just often hard to appreciate it through the fog and rain. Although, my experience is that its not really a true rain, like in the south or midwest. More of a constant drizzle for 6-9 months out of the year. Liquid Sunshine. |

That is weak! All along I thought you had potential to become a Cougar fan. Cougars are furry woodland creatures, except they live in the mountains and grow to be quite large. As far as good places to live, I have enjoyed most places that I've lived. Ohio isn't a bad place, but in order to live here you have to have a high tolerance for empty factories and Buckeye fans. Both are depressing to observe. |

Clearly not one of you has ever been to Rockland, Idaho.
Once you see SouthCentral Power County you will not leave. There is something special about living in a town where the butcher shop comes to you every October, and all the womenfolk know mossy oak is the sexiest of sexy mens clothes.

If you tell me my income, I'll tell you where I'd like to live.
Given high enough income, I could live anywhere. Given modest income, I'd change my choices. Given no income, I'd choose Hawaii.
