I figured 1-10 would be all in California or NYC areas.

Portland, OR IS a California and New York area. Liberals from California and the East Coast have been flocking to Portland for decades. (Vera Katz the mayor of portland is a eastern commie) It's not a coincidence that Portland has low job growth, high cost of living, and high housing costs. Multnomah County (which includes most of portland) has its own income tax.

The ones who dont go there go to Portland Maine to ruin it. What a mess of a town it has turned into...leftist trap.

All that without a state sales tax. Imagine if we added that to the mix, I'd bet Portland would be at the top of the list.

BTW, I have to add this as it is the one thing here that drives me nuts since I moved up from California to be closer to family a year ago. Oregonians cannot drive worth a wooden nickel!!!!! Stop for no reason, do not go at green lights, drive slower than posted limits, Argh!! Tangent off :)
