I live in Honolulu, HI and the cost of living is crazy. I plan on owning a business someday and Hawaii is just not the place to start. I was considering Portland, OR because its a really nice place to live but Seattle, WA has a better offer when it comes to business. I am planning to start up my business in Seattle, WA and move to Portland when I retire. Seattle is cheaper than Honolulu but Portland is way cheaper than Seattle. A luxury condo in Bellevue is a few hundred dollars more to rent out compared to a luxury condo in the waterfront districts in Portland. Also groceries is much cheaper in Portland. I heard electricity and gas is also cheap and there is no sales tax. Do alot of Seattle residents reitire in Portland?
Do A Lot Of People From Seattle Retire In Portland?
