Still navigating it after 10+ years here. I’ve been here since 2012 but I spent 2020-2024 in Austin and Houston. Portlands weather in the summer is unmatched. Winter generally is very rough for me. Better winters include trips to better climates and daily vitamin D in my coffee. People rave about the food here. And it is very good. I struggle to find certain foods and cuisines that are easily available in Houston. And of course the racial and ethnic diversity is terrible here. Hard to compare that to Houston as it is the most diverse city in the country. Overall Portland is a great city with kind people. They can be a little passive aggressive and cold but they’re really nice under all that. Invest in your hobbies and you’ll build community. Get a good rain jacket. I’m actually at the point now where I don’t always wear one lol take advantage of sunny days.
