Hi,
I'm considering the move to Portland from the midwest, particularly the Kansas Urban area, MO metro area. I've done a lot of research on the municipality, and it seems to be exactly what I'm looking forprogressive minded, wonderful public transit, recreation options, and the weather looks awesome. I, being a gay man, also own been reading that Portland is especially gay-friendly compared to other metros. So, here's my question: are there any areas where you all would encourage that I relocate to which are especially gay-friendly? Without getting too detailed, I would ideally fond a neighborhood close to a MAX line, and with amenities like grocery stores, specialty shops, etc. close by. Price range aside, do you all have any ideas? Thanks!!!

The Castro today, though, isn’t The Castro of Harvey Milk. Chelsea and Boystown weren’t the exclusive enclaves they are today. Pre-Madonna, these hoods were dirty, crime-ridden places citizens forgot and governments tried to forget.

These were great sanctuaries for queer people to hide and thrive. Ironically, our places of refuge made many mar

    The Urban area of 8 Monikers

    Portland goes by many nicknames, “City of Roses,” “Rip City,” “Stumptown,” etc. Portland started through the Oregon Footpath. Large numbers of pioneer settlers began arriving in Willamette Valley in the s. It’s evolved quite a bit since then!
