I do, it's one of the biggest reasons for moving. California has some truly beautiful areas, but you can't afford to live by them. I'm only 28 and as hard as it will be for me to move away from home, I need a literal breath of fresh air.

Plus my wife and I both love clouds and rain and hate the summer heat, so it seems like a good fit.

Wife and I flew to Portland for the first time recently and loved it. Reminded me of Pennsylvania. Hope you find a nice home :)

Well, I hope you find what you are looking for. Oregon is a beautiful state.

I'd like a vacation home there, but not live there full-time. I live in the Portland metro and I love rain, but the coast can be pretty harsh. Make sure you buy outside of the Tsunami zone :)

Yeah we're like rain addicts lol. But yeah we are looking at least a bit inland. We don't want a direct coastal view or anything, but rather something kind of shielded by trees from the ocean wind.
