Portland or Boulder?
    #14253460 - 04/07/11 02:31 PM (12 years, 9 months ago)

I am trying to decide where to move once I have money saved up.
Where I live now doesnt cohere at all with my beliefs or the lifestyle I want to live.
Any of you guys live in Colorado or the Portland area?

umm... flip a coin.

both places are pretty awesome.

i'd choose portland only because it's closer to the sea, but then again, i'd choose other places over portland.

Do you want rain or snow? :smile:

I'd pick a suburb of Boulder myself.
Broomfield/Louisville area.

Well if you have more money than you know what to do with, love dave matthews band, and are a douchebag new age yuppie in general I'd say Boulder is perfect for you.

Never been to portland though so I have no basis to compare the two. I just wouldnt wanna live in Boulder again.

EDIT: boulder doesnt get that much snow. I mean, it does but it ususally doesnt stick around very long. The sun is intense and tends to melt everything within a couple days if not the morning after it snows. It's really a beautiful place weather wise.

That's true. But it's been snowing there recently, and it's fucking April.

And some winters are really snowy there. Although not for the most part.

I am going off secondhand advice though.
Know a couple friends who used to live in Colorado.

Ha Im far from rich and not a doushebag but what attracts me to Boulder is how close the mountins are and the general focus on things to do outdoors.

Ha. I'm from michigan as well. Detroit is WAY colder than Boulder. I mean, temperature wise yeah Boulder is colder. But -10 in boulder feels like 10 degrees in detroit. Humidity makes the michigan cold SOOO much worse.

It depends on the specific kind of job...you cant even get a specific kind of job in every city let alone town.

If you're self employed or doing something basic (manual labor, bartender, cook, construction, warehouse, farm hand, sales, networking, computer repair) you can find a job ANYWHERE.

I would have to say Portland over Boulder. I've visited Boulder a few times and it seems to have an enormous yuppie population. The white collar mountain biking dads and yoga practicing soccer mom types.    Boulder is beautiful though, and there are certainly good drugs/people there.
Since this January I've been living in Portland. I originally moved to western Oregon from eastern Iowa a few years back and it was awesome moving to the ocean and mountains. Portland is pretty diverse. There are a ton of hipsters/scenesters but a pretty healthy group of hippies/ravers/metalheads/punks too.
The weather is mild during the winter but pretty damn rainy. Always ends up making me wish for snow because you don't instantly get soaked from it. I appreciate how everything stays green in winter though, I'm used to nothing but grey as far as the eye can see. Summertime is warm and dry, it never gets very humid and rarely rains until the fall.
Portland has a ton of parks and green spaces, the riverfront is especially pretty for a downtown area. Also, Portland is only an hour and a bit from the ocean. All sorts of musical groups pass through Portland too, from classical to death metal. I really can't look at the weekly concert lists unless I want to feel bad because I can't afford to go to every show.

Boulder is full of pretend-hippie college-kids, mostly female.

Portland is full of junkies and tweakers.

That being said I still prefer Portland. I find Portland to be more beautiful but I prefer mossy forests to rocks.

Come to Atlanta.  We're a pretty progressive city with cheap living and a lot to do.  Always shows and great food and festivals.  There is a lot of cool neighborhoods here and the weather is fan-fucking-tastic.  It's going to be 75 and sunny tomorrow.

You should welcome transplants if your not native american.  What makes you so special that you can reject someone who because they like your location enough to move there?

Wow thanks for so many great replies, I kinda understand the hostility, after people have been doing something or been somewhere for X amount of time they get a sense of entitlement. :shrug:
I used to be that way but Ive accepted that nothing is original anymore and dont waste energy thinking badly towards someone whos life doesnt even affect mine.
live and let live :heart:

Boulder MOST DEF my man.  Boulder is super chill, Colorado is super chill. We are a medical marijuana state, Telluride Mushroom Festival!,Denver is dope and is like only 40 mins away from awesome superchill/small but with a lotta perks/College town(Booze, Drugs, Psychedelics easy as to acquire),(South park takes place in this state). I would choose BOULDER. Granted I am a little bias because I was born and raised and still am in Denver, Colorado. Colorado is an amazing place, In the center of the United States, meaning we have Styles both East Coast and West Coast, North,South(We everyone BITCH!). CHOOSE COLORADO!

P.S.- We're a mile high...We GET A MILE HIGHER!

P.P.S -I'm pretty fucking high

OP I moved to Boulder about a year ago and I'm loving it.  There's pros and cons to every town.  Hipsters and generally bad people are unavoidable.  Choose a town where you can cope with these negatives best.

Another really cool town that I would highly recommend you look into is Austin.

you don't want to live in the PNW for weather alone, it's been raining since october and won't stop until june, does it every year, it's 40 degrees right now, low of 34 tonight, in April. It rains 200+ days a year, and is constantly gloomy and cold. it's been out of the 50s twice since october and that was a fluke, it likely won't get out of the 50s again until sometime in may.




this winter's rain rotted away my back porch and woke up the other day to friend screaming bloody murder, a portion of it finally gave through when he stepped on it... lol....



all aside though, i love the weather here... the winter is comparitively mild and you actually get a spring here, so short lived where i grew up....  tbh i love it cool and wet.....

Oregon is mostly like that. Even in Eugene people were saying it was very difficult to find a native.

Portland is actually a very foodie city, I've lived and dined virtually everywhere in Seattle and have put a reasonable dent in SF, but would rate Portland highest in this regard.. am sure people will disagree, but there's no denying we're passionate about food.

Never been to Portland myself, but if we are talking foodie cities, LA is a fucking nuclear explosion of amazing food.
You could probably live here your whole life, go to a different restaurant twice a day, and still find new amazing places to eat until the day you die.
The girlfriend and I have a new hobby, that is finding new foodie places..little unknown hole-in-the-wall restaurants that have the best food.
The fancy places are good too once in a while. But we like discovering the little hidden gems. And they are ALL OVER THE PLACE here.
Although yeah, if we are talking full... Los Angeles is full. what there's like 18 million people within 50 miles from me in LA/OC

East coast people in general need less space than West coast people, or West coast people need more space.

either way- Oregon is full.  Thank You, Good Bye.


I think that Seattle is a better food citty than Portland, but then again I've spent a lot more time in Seattle than Portland.

Never been to Portland myself, but if we are talking foodie cities, LA is a fucking nuclear explosion of amazing food.
You could probably live here your whole life, go to a different restaurant twice a day, and still find new amazing places to eat until the day you die.
The girlfriend and I have a new hobby, that is finding new foodie places..little unknown hole-in-the-wall restaurants that have the best food.
The fancy places are good too once in a while. But we like discovering the little hidden gems. And they are ALL OVER THE PLACE here.
Although yeah, if we are talking full... Los Angeles is full. what there's like 18 million people within 50 miles from me in LA/OC 




Any city of that size has to have phenomenal food.... nobody would live there if it didn't, lol.

If we could look into each others hearts, and understand the unique challenges each of us faces, I think we would treat each other much more gently, with more love, patience, tolerance, and care.

It takes a lot of courage to go out there and radiate your essence.

I know you scared, you should ask us if we scared too.  If you was there, and we just knew you cared too.

The beaches and sunshine 24/7 don't hurt either :wink:
It doesn't rain here 365 days a year

I live a mile from the beach in OC, most of the smog is mostly inland and the LA area :shrug:
The air quality here is also supposedly a lot better than it was years ago

The air quality in LA is actually not bad.
And the breeze from the coast blows all the crap to the Inland Empire.

Yah, but I've watched the news enough to know that there are occasionally freakishly hot days in LA, which I would hate.... of all the aforementioned cities, I believe San Diego by far has the best climate.

the air quality there is really swinging back to the more polluted times.

Malibu smells like poo and it's on the beach.

Not sure what cities you're referring to, but San Diego is hot.
The closer you get to Mexico, the closer you are to the Equator, the hotter it is...

It's basically 90 there right now- same as OC. When it gets to the 90s, it's fucking hot in OC.

The fucking desert is cooler than the coast today. (Palm Springs is 84. :angrykidface:)

EDIT: As for the perfect California climate, I'd say the central coast.

It is pretty fucking hot today.

Although after all my travels and living in various places
I'd prefer to die from heat than freeze to death. Being cold fucking sucks.

I can deal with the 90 degree days here.
90 degree days in the summer in DC area also means 90% humidity.

That's simply not the whole picture, you can get a microclimate, as is the case of San Diego, due to the topography (the bay, hills, mountains, canyons etc)... Portland is the same way, much of Oregon does not share its milder climate.



The average highs speak for themselves.  San Diego has one of the best summer climates and over all yearly climates around.

Of course you can.

Also, the temperature at a coastal airport is not really representative of all of San Diego.
LAX has the same average highs. As does any coastal city you pick on the way.
