A first in Oregon history: More people are dying than being born for the first time in Oregon history.
Young people and families with children are fleeing the state.
They are fleeing the state because of the high crime, high taxes, and high cost-of-living. Earlier this year, Oregon was among the top 6 highest cost of living states (see below).
These empty family homes are quickly bought by a massive of influx of seniors who are fleeing California where things are much worse.
The Employment Department estimates that over 40,000 Californians move into Oregon annually.
Roughly 1 in 4 Oregonians are born in California.

Nah...we did not vote that way...commies are CHEATERS
Oh yeah...about 70% one shot
we didn’t vote in a commie.
they stole the election with mail in voting again.
I’m looking around and should be gone within a year.
Open to recommendations. we are NOT liberal and have had enough.
Us, too!
57 years in Oregon, watching the state slowly die from being poisoned by Californian expats.
Wife is a surgical RN, and RNs are in a desperate shortage here. Tough shit, Oregon, we are LEAVING!!!
Oregon, even Portland, was really nice back when. I was born in Portland in 1955 and moved to Arizona in 1985. Every time I’d go back to visit, the place had gotten worse. Now that I no longer have close relatives living there, I haven’t even set foot in the state since maybe 2005. Nobody there I want to see.
I lied. We went to Oregon for the eclipse in 2017, but stayed east of the Cascades.
I bet the effect is centered on post apocalyptic Portland.
Once the port of Portland was shut down in 2015 because it was too small for the current container ships, it was inevitable that this day would come.
I identify with the pic, not the caption.
My ancestors came to this county 4 years after it was cut up (1885) in 1889.
They were tough hardy people, we are still here. I was the first in the immediate family to move away. Was gone 25 years, back since 1995. They will bury me here, one way or the other. I’m the last in my generation.
I will resist to the end or until this great evil is slain. The self appointed slave masters will not like me.
not to worry. Biden will fill the state with illegals and the retired from Calif that buy homes will pay for their kids’ schooling with increased property taxes - same process that turned Cally into majority hispanic
