Too much of an industrial area, not great for living. Loud at night and lots of big trucks driving up and down the roads with no sidewalks

I would choose to live in Portland again if I could do it all over. I lived in Seattle for my childhood and life in Portland is so different. The resources available to families in need are more numerous here than in Seattle.
