About Portland, Oregon
Portland is the largest city in Oregon and the 25th-largest in the United States, with a population of roughly 635,000 in the city proper and about 2.5 million in the greater metro area. Known for its bridges, forested hills, world-class food scene, and progressive culture, Portland sits at the confluence of the Willamette and Columbia Rivers and serves as the economic, cultural, and creative hub of Oregon.
History of Portland
Portland was founded in 1843 and named after Portland, Maine, following a famous coin flip between two settlers who each wanted to name the city after their hometown (the other choice was Boston). The city grew rapidly as a Pacific port and became a major lumber center in the late 19th century. Portland played significant roles in the Oregon Trail migration, the Lewis and Clark expedition's return, and the development of the Pacific Northwest. The 20th century saw Portland transform from a working port city into a major tech, healthcare, and cultural center, particularly following the arrival of Intel, Nike, and other major employers in the region.
