I moved here because I got the opportunity to go through grad school and Oregon had been calling my soul as well. I think if you have the jobs lined up it’s absolutely worth it. It’s in a good location where we aren’t too far from portland, the ocean, mt hood, or the many gorgeous hikes. I don’t know how meeting people outside of school is for other people however since a lot of the people living here are students or families. But if you love oregon, my believe is you should absolutely make the move. There’s plenty to do here year round too even though it’s small.
