People are coming from all over the country and others are empty nesters moving downtown. Portland is attracting a lot in the 18-34 year old demographic. The Portland region has its own economic style in a way since it has only one fortune 500 company (Nike). I guess you could say its economy is more locally based made up of small companies. Some of the industries that are big in oregon are high tech, manufacturing and timber (all of which arent exactly the strongest right now).
