@@goodyearspokane heard England has the same issue. Thanks for watching!

@@envAmerica Having a decent lot is rare with new construction! Thanks for watching. Are you window shopping or making a purchase in this market of opportunity?

@@portlandoregonliving 😡🦍

@@Bronx_Bombers Not for Portland-but for Vancouver you may qualify for a deferral of your property tax liability if you are 60 or older, or retired because of physical disability and own the home in which you live and occupy it at least nine months a year.

@@Letha-AnnCooper Kind of sad they don’t do it for the citizens who pay tax and care!

That’s definitely a thing, but not something I mention every single video. I also serve in the National Guard so we train for the event annually, perhaps a focused video soon. Subscribe to stay tuned.

@@jarvisstradford7211 I know of one person, but haven’t seen a major trend personally!

@@envAmerica Prost on Mississippi is one of my favorites! Hawthorne strip is overrated/not as good as it used to be imo-I have a video featuring it. Will be dropping another video next week, stay tuned and subscribe for more. Thanks for watching, cheers!

@@LivinginOregonandWashington Yes, sunsets in the beer garden at Prost are epic.. I'm personally not a Hawthorne person, but there, along with Belmont close by, aren't going anywhere. The strip on Division has become dominant in that area of Southeast. I'm already a veteran subscriber.. It's been weeks! Gotta have my ear to the streets.

@@envAmericaAwesome thanks for being here, then! Belmont and Division are 100% cooler now. I went to college on 67th and Division, always loved walking down that way. Back then Hawthorne was the place to be. Belmont station and Laurelhurst are big vibes.

@@GregMacDougall-m3n damn that’s rough. I was walking this morning over Burnside bridge and the light was hitting the Max just right to cast an awesome glimmer over the river. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder 🤷🏻‍♂️ Portland has got good&bad imo

I agree, Thank You!@@LivinginOregonandWashington

If I had to rank them i'd say Camas is the best, followed by Hockinson, Ridgefield, and Evergreen. Battle Ground notoriously underfunds their school district, a ton of people don't like paying taxes in that area. Well known to be underfunded. I'll make this a section in my next video about Vancouver! I'm thinking; "Everything You Need to Know About Vancouver!" Reach out when it's time to make the move!

Feel free to check out my most recent video on Vancouver, I’ll have one focusing on schools coming up: ua-cam.com/video/0J1YoAyO5QE/v-deo.htmlsi=yfr7cdhTCj6QQs8o

Sounds like North Dakota is calling your name!

@@LivinginOregonandWashington I know people who left Minot to get away from a meth culture, so no. Drugs are everywhere, but making them legal is just stupid.

@@justme-dm7sb I agree with you, makes no sense. However you really only see it take effect in Portland proper, and even there they’ve reversed measure 110. I moved out of Portland proper due to the drug issue though. I still love Oregon and couldn’t imagine living somewhere else.

@@LivinginOregonandWashington I get that. I live in western Washington. I call it the living land, because everything is alive including the ground I walk on. People ask me where I live, I tell them Narnia. Although I am very rural and my firearms are grandfathered I still see people struggling with home invasions, car jackings, and break ins regularly. I believe it is a lack of mental health care and much of the drug problems come from that same shortcoming. People used to be able to go to a mental health care facility and get help and meds. When all that started going away in the 80's and 90's the problems exploded. People started seeking street drugs to self medicate, and now its completely out of control. We have a mental health crisis a million times over what any gun problem could be. If law abiding citizens with guns were going to be a problem you would already know it. Fix the mental health system and 80% of our major problems would be nonexistent in a years time. I too, am going to stick it out, keep voting and keep speaking out. Something will give eventually. If I have to leave someday, it is what it is. Right now I am still in the fight to get someone with common sense into government. I can only hope.

@@justme-dm7sb Watch the movie “Leave No Trace”… I think it speaks to the beauty of our area but the way the system is opposed to people who want to progress it… very great movie beautifully done. To me the issues you speak to are also national level conversations, and the West Coast is much more Libertarian than Liberal in my experience. We still live in the wild west. To me the draconian stuff is happening in the mega cities-LA, New York (have military friends there), even big Texas cities. Oregon and Washington have too much nature to come after people-whether you’re a hippie that doesn’t want to vaccinate or a libertarian who believes in 2A there is a unity in the west unlike anywhere else I think people miss all the time as a hallmark of what it means to be Oregonian / Washingtonian.

@@StevenGundry-py3pm have you had a chance to see it yet Steven?

@@TrusellaLouise-ng3pl the 60-70k comment rings true.

@@lenatran2471 same!

@@triquepersonalwork6369 hopefully people remember this when they vote

I thought about leaving after 2022 election and measure 113, but I'll refrain until 2024 election.

@@xisigma Where would you move to if it doesn’t pan out? And are you talking about local politicians being voted out? Who specifically, the mayor? I hope Rene makes it in personally. Cheers

My clients are getting epic deals in Portland! That’s how 😤😎🤝

@@LivinginOregonandWashington So people are getting good deals also on more expensive units. My neighbors are coming from Texas and Florida due to high insurance costs and high tax rates...getting good high tech jobs that support Intel in this area. So people are moving back! I just spoke to my friend who moved to Boise and wish he never left the Hillsboro area because the job situation is much better.

@@Buckseed Yeah I had friends move to Boise who now regret it. And people are still moving a ton to our area, just a bit less than before to Portland proper. The suburbs are still growing, especially Vancouver.

@@LivinginOregonandWashington We have people working here at Intel who are coming from Camas...compressed work week and nights because that commute can be a hassle during the day every day. I'm not sure the benefits of that area, as I have a place in Brookwood three miles from RA Intel. 10 minute drive...20 min bike ride. I can take the MAX if necessary with walking.

@@BuckseedCamas is like a mini Lake Oswego tax haven. But I wouldn’t want that commute!! I’d be looking for work at somewhere like Fischer’s investments if I worked over there.

Oregon is at a 9.1% shortage of homes, a couple percentages of population shift won’t do much-would need to see more rampant population decrease. Also, parts of Multnomah county housing prices are down year over year.

@@LivinginOregonandWashington Why would be short homes if people are leaving I don't understand?

@@jarethgarA 9.1% shortage minus a 2-3% exodus is still a housing shortage. The housing shortage is worse than people think! But like I said, there are definitely parts of East Portland leveling out (or even dropping) in price!

​@@LivinginOregonandWashington Yeah East Portland is kind of a dump

Did you watch the whole video? Seems like you missed most of the nuance of the conversation.

There are absolutely those areas and they are Many

Thanks for watching!

There may still be hope. Reach out of buying or selling a home is part of your plans. Cheers (503)-957-7981

I’m licensed in both states by the way so reach out if you need help in both states! Cheers

@@portshore8552 It is! Iconic.

As long as people are here to make it a better place I don’t mind. Would rather kick those out who are bringing the city down.

@@LivinginOregonandWashington like you Californians who have migrated over here

@@Hecto356I’ve lived in Oregon for 24 years.

True Californians outbid homes and crowd the roads, but they also bring money with them. The entire Oregon economy is dependent on its scenery attracting outside investment. Nike and Intel pay penny taxes since the city council bends over backwards for them.

@@xisigma agreed, people who are telling everyone to leave would live in a dump without all the outside investment and interest. Besides being a beautiful place, Portland’s problems haven’t tanked the city because we still have fresh people moving in with fresh ideas and outlook. Cheers

Everyone says Portland was great in the 90s but that was when the last major crime wave hit Portland. We only broke a homicide record broke in the late 80s/early 90s in 2021 and we are already back below those levels. Portland was best in mid 2000s to early 2010s imo.

I couldn’t agree more with this comment, it’s why I moved to Milwaulkie. Hopefully soon! But I got tired of waiting.

Just based on the political maps, Portland is definitely the deepest blue, Washington is still very blue, Clark and Clackamas county are a very soft blue. However, Clackamas has some red areas in Canby to Estacada area. From my experience, clients right of center tend to move to those places. Places like Milwaukie, Oregon City and Clackamas proper are still very much down the center where you have neighbors from all political affiliations! I personally like the later, because it prevents echo chambers and prevents polarization. We are a democracy built on many ideas. Perhaps a next video idea? Thanks for commenting and watching.

@@LivinginOregonandWashington 👍

@@LivinginOregonandWashington Oh yeah. Glad you got out of Portland. Me 20 years ago. It was getting weird then.💯

@@BIGboiFASTboi watch the video and you’ll find out! Cheers

Plenty of muff-divers live here, take a number and get in line.

Not sure about lesbians but if you like the homeless you've come to the right place

lots of lesbians in my experience lol

Lots of people with all types of different interests here! Pdx seems to attract those with unusual tastes, interests and lifestyles. Mental health therapy is very big business in Pdx.

@@ChrisHart-d1z I am a conversion behavioral therapist and I think it's important to have an already established base with which to help convert future lesbians. Do you think women of Portland are more susceptible than average to lesbian conversion?

@@msjaebea Thats a long time.

@@tamedshrew235 This is part of Con number 2. And I can’t say for sure-I hope people can demonstrate their political views without damaging local businesses who don’t give a shit who president is!

@@LivinginOregonandWashington Amen!

@@robyoungquist5803 💯

Lived in Portland, Phoenix, and Atlanta and Portland is by FAR the worst in terms of homelessness and property crime. and it way more expensive

⁠​⁠@@ToughLuckStudio Atlanta has a property crime rate of 75.4 while Portland is at 72.3. Portland is also lower than USA average on violent crime, Atlanta is 2.5x worse. Portland’s property crime isn’t usually armed and is petty criminals/addicts. Phoenix has a violent crime rate nearly double the national average. Phoenix average home price is at $418,000-not far off Portland at $528,000. At 5:16 you will get an appreciation for why Portland is a relative bargain. We are far greener, have more moderate temperature, and will still have drinking water in 2040. The amount of people flocking to the sunbelt right now is absurd given they already had extremely tight water constraints in most areas. If we are going to compare lets at least do it away from whatever the headline news is telling you to think! At the end of the day, where you live is somewhat subjective and totally up to you-i’m just here to set the record straight for people who are genuinely interested in our city, Cheers and thanks for watching

@@gregnadai6234 I had a buddy who lives on the big island say it was milk or eggs (I forget)-milk here went from about $1.50 to $4 so inflation is still hitting everyone… but nuts to me how expensive Hawaii is for the basics! Let me know if you need any recommendations. Cheers 🤙🏼 (503)-957-7981

be safe. portland has become a cesspool of drugs, property crime, and homelessness. Keep your head on a swivel and don't leave anything in your car.

@@hammertimee777 When was your last trip? 2021 was by far the worst. Most people who have gone down in the last year have said it’s gotten a lot better.

@@Salmonskinbandaid It’s all relative and has definitely got better since 2021. Love visiting Austin! Reach out when you visit, would love to show you around. (503)-957-7981 Cheers

Where’d you move to?

@@evoxideo Portland definitely has the nightlife if that’s what you’re looking for! 🕺🪩

I enjoy the suburbs of Portland, personally.

Downtown became a literal sh*t hole and still is one despite wheeler. Now you have to be a doctor or lawyer to live downtown. Or homeless.
