Whoever determined this made no effort to try and get in and around Beaverton via motor vehicle. Great town if you don't mind having to walk everywhere......

I am the smartest, wealthiest, most handsome man in America, if we consider only certain narrowly-defined criteria and ignore all others.

One of my favorite places in Portland. Knew the owners way back. Great food. Great people.

Beaverton ranked the 2nd best place to live by people who live in Beaverton. With most saying they would rather live in Portland.

Portland could charge you a monthly fee to help fix its ‘deplorable’ streets

After nearly 20 years of failed attempts, Portland leaders say this time is different — but a $6.6 billion repair backlog looms over every proposal on the table.

WTF?? I thought the $0.10/gallon gas tax they passed ten years ago was gonna be the solution. Probably got wasted on bike lanes and public transportation like always. And with the same results.......God bless my little soulless"there's no there, there" suburb. Infrastructure is still taken seriously here.........

Yeah, before the damn Democrat party ruined it. Trump will fix it though, once he's done fixing Iran and Cuba.

Roads in Oregon are so underfunded that it's unbelievable.
Listening to county commissioners talking about it, it's pretty dire.

Sounds like we'd have to more than double the gas tax to even make a dent. And then everyone would just buy less gas.
